May 10, 2012 / 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 3784 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3195 companies with positive Friction Factors and 2582 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the highest net sell volume on Thursday and lowest negative price Friction (bearish). This means that there was more selling than buying in the stocks and their stock prices dropped faster with less Friction. BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION (NYSE:BAC), ON SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION (NASDAQ:ONNN), RESEARCH IN MOTION (NASDAQ:RIMM), CORNING INC (NYSE:GLW), MICROSOFT CORPORATION (NASDAQ:MSFT), (NYSE:GWRE).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

  Symbol  Change    Percent   Buy Volume   Buy %%    Sell Volume  Sell %%   Net Volume   Friction
  BAC     $-0.030   -0.39%    39,912,574   27.31%    48,780,974   33.38%    -8,868,400   -2,956,133
  ONNN    $-0.120   -1.51%    5,406,052    41.88%    7,500,300    58.11%    -2,094,248   -174,521
  RIMM    $-0.110   -0.92%    8,423,104    46.33%    9,755,493    53.66%    -1,332,389   -121,126
  GLW     $-0.040   -0.33%    2,723,858    24.97%    3,832,064    35.13%    -1,108,206   -277,052
  MSFT    $-0.050   -0.17%    20,686,416   47.64%    22,629,006   52.11%    -1,942,590   -388,518

Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have low price friction combined with more selling than buying (negative Net Volume) in their stocks. The Friction Factor displays how many more shares of buying than selling are required to move a stock higher by one cent or how many more shares of selling than buying moves a stock lower by 1 cent.

For example, the chart above shows BAC down $-0.03000 with a Friction Factor of -2,956,133 and a Net Volume of -8,868,400. That means that it takes 2,956,133 more shares of selling than buying to drop BAC by one penny. On Monday the Market Makers allowed the stock to move down on heavier selling than buying (low negative friction).
