June 5, 2012 / M2 PRESSWIRE / BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Tuesday. 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 Tuesday there were 3863 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3297 companies with positive Friction Factors and 2140 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage gain per share Tuesday and low price friction (bullish). This means that there was more buying than selling in the stocks and their stock prices rose faster with less Friction. AMYRIS INC (NASDAQ:AMRS), Metabolix Inc (NASDAQ:MBLX), JAGUAR MINING INC (NYSE:JAG), BRIDGELINE DIGITAL INC (NASDAQ:BLIN), FORUM NATIONAL INVESTMENTS LTD N (OTC:FMNL), (OTC:MRTKF).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

  Symbol  Change    Percent   Buy Volume   Buy %%    Sell Volume  Sell %%   Net Volume   Friction
  AMRS    $0.640    27.47%    1,437,664    51.63%    1,345,448    48.32%    92,216       1,441   
  MBLX    $0.610    31.12%    178,937      51.76%    165,874      47.98%    13,063       214     
  JAG     $0.290    22.83%    1,794,044    36.42%    1,394,426    28.31%    399,618      13,780  
  BLIN    $0.860    56.95%    1,184,276    54.14%    999,471      45.69%    184,805      2,149   
  FMNL    $0.280    37.84%    57,000       35.88%    30,390       19.13%    26,610       950     
  MRTKF   $6.295    63.50%    324,200      61.87%    199,800      38.13%    124,400      198     
Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have high net buy volumes (buy volume, sell volume) and low price friction 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 AMRS with a dollar gain Tuesday of $0.64000 and a Friction Factor of 1,441 shares. That means that it only took 1,441 more shares of buying than selling to move AMRS higher by one penny. The Market Makers are currently allowing the stock to rise quickly (low friction). The combination of low friction and positive market direction can drive prices higher much faster than normal.
