October 27, 2016 / 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 5413 companies with "abnormal" market making, 1863 companies with positive Friction Factors and 4111 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. Agenus Inc. (NASDAQ:AGEN), CARBO Ceramics Inc. (NYSE:CRR), Stoneridge Inc. (NYSE:SRI), Proteostasis Therapeutics (NASDAQ:PTI), Kraton Performance Polymers Inc. (NYSE:KRA), ReWalk Robotics (NASDAQ:RWLK).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

  Symbol  Change    Percent   Buy Volume   Buy %%    Sell Volume  Sell %%   Net Volume   Friction
  AGEN    $-0.920   -0.18%    1,501,449    37.39%    1,591,334    39.63%    -89,885      -977    
  CRR     $-2.610   -0.27%    2,036,081    37.16%    2,040,333    37.23%    -4,252       -16     
  SRI     $-3.950   -0.22%    535,586      33.07%    556,920      34.39%    -21,334      -54     
  PTI     $-4.340   -0.34%    195,224      25.29%    261,944      33.93%    -66,720      -154    
  KRA     $-5.900   -0.19%    883,471      32.96%    936,705      34.94%    -53,234      -90     
  RWLK    $-1.250   -0.28%    732,477      33.36%    827,081      37.67%    -94,604      -757    

For example, the chart above shows AGEN with a dollar loss Thursday of $-0.92000 and a Friction Factor of -977 shares. That means that it only took 977 more shares of selling than buying to move AGEN 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.
