October 4, 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 3929 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3575 companies with positive Friction Factors and 1954 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the highest net buy volume on Thursday and lowest price Friction (bullish). This means that there was more buying than selling in the stocks and their stock prices rose faster with less Friction. General Electric Co (NYSE:GE), Hewlett-Packard Co (NYSE:HPQ), CABELAS INCORPORATED (NYSE:CAB), Staples Inc (NASDAQ:SPLS), Textron Inc (NYSE:TXT), Platinum Communications Corp (NYSE:PCS).

  GE      $0.040    0.17%     14,984,719   37.48%    11,578,366   28.96%    3,406,353    851,588

For example, the chart above shows GE with a Net Buy Volume of 3,406,353 shares and a Friction Factor of 851,588 shares. That means that it takes 851,588 more shares of buying than selling to move GE higher by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to move up higher as of Thursday (lower friction). And with one of the highest Net Buy Volumes, the combination of low friction and high net buy volume is bullish.
