March 28, 2013 / 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.

On Thursday there were 3917 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3145 companies with positive Friction Factors and 2279 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with Abnormal Price Friction (bearish bias) in their stock prices. This means that there was more buying than selling in the stocks and their stock prices dropped. BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION (NYSE:BAC), Altria Group Inc (NYSE:MO), Sirius XM Radio Inc (NASDAQ:SIRI), Yahoo! Inc (NASDAQ:YHOO), Ford Motor Co (NYSE:F), Twoco Petroleums Ltd (NYSE:TWO).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

  Symbol  Change    Percent   Buy Volume   Buy %%    Sell Volume  Sell %%   Net Volume   Friction
  BAC     $-0.060   -0.49%    32,146,696   35.84%    25,718,985   28.67%    6,427,711    Abnormal
  MO      $-0.020   -0.06%    4,463,461    50.22%    2,055,031    23.12%    2,408,430    Abnormal
  SIRI    $-0.010   -0.19%    30,810,589   66.40%    15,587,881   33.60%    15,222,708   Abnormal
  YHOO    $-0.090   -0.38%    9,128,908    59.77%    6,141,132    40.21%    2,987,776    Abnormal
  F       $-0.080   -0.61%    9,957,918    39.83%    6,933,500    27.74%    3,024,418    Abnormal
  TWO     $-0.960   -7.08%    9,819,258    52.06%    4,938,974    26.18%    4,880,284    Abnormal
Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more buying than selling on Thursday and their stock prices dropped. 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 with 6,427,711 greater shares of buying than selling (NetVol) and the stock price was down $-0.06000. This means the Market Makers were trading the stock in a way inconsistent with normal supply and demand (Economics 101); more buying than selling should cause prices to rise.
