December 29, 2011 / M2 PRESSWIRE / BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Thursday. Since October 2008 market makers are now required to be on the bid as much as they are on the offer and for like amounts of stock. This Fair Market Making Requirement is designed to prevent market makers from manipulating stock prices. On Thursday there were 3807 companies with "abnormal" market making, 4227 companies with positive Friction Factors and 2366 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage loss per share Thursday and low price friction (bearish). This means that there was more selling than buying in the stocks and their stock prices dropped faster with less Friction. PERFUMANIA HOLDINGS INC (NASDAQ:PERF), Deckers Outdoor Corp (NASDAQ:DECK), Cyanotech Corp (NASDAQ:CYAN), POKERTEK INC (NASDAQ:PTEK), INVIVO THERAPTC (OTC:NVIV), Raystream Inc (OTCBB:RAYS).

     PERF       $-1.180      -9.88%       33,919          43.08%       44,817          56.92%       -10,898         -92     
     DECK       $-6.750      -7.99%       1,797,815       46.31%       1,999,085       51.50%       -201,270        -298    
     CYAN       $-1.280      -14.37%      61,600          46.53%       70,350          53.13%       -8,750          -68     
     PTEK       $-0.160      -12.80%      127,634         42.04%       175,995         57.96%       -48,361         -3,023  
     NVIV       $-0.190      -7.06%       428,087         46.86%       472,416         51.71%       -44,329         -2,333  
     RAYS       $-0.200      -13.33%      623,672         38.95%       899,474         56.18%       -275,802        -13,790 

For example, the chart above shows PERF with a dollar loss Thursday of $-1.18000 and a Friction Factor of -92 shares. That means that it only took 92 more shares of selling than buying to move PERF lower by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to drop quickly (low friction). The combination of low friction and negative market direction can drive prices lower faster than normal.
