Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage loss per share Friday and low price friction (bearish).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

  Symbol  Change    Percent   Buy Volume   Buy %%    Sell Volume  Sell %%   Net Volume   Friction
  ASPN    $-1.850   -0.31%    209,146      24.21%    292,366      33.84%    -83,220      -450

  ABTL    $-5.020   -0.31%    262,992      33.00%    292,607      36.72%    -29,615      -59     
  IVTY    $-4.150   -0.45%    1,031,602    40.18%    1,099,041    42.81%    -67,439      -163    
  LILA    $-7.420   -0.28%    1,247,292    31.89%    1,289,008    32.95%    -41,716      -56     
  LILAK   $-7.120   -0.27%    3,346,244    33.00%    4,554,914    44.92%    -1,208,670   -1,698  
Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have high net dollar losses (Change) and extremely 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 ASPN with a dollar loss Friday of $-1.85000 and a Friction Factor of -450 shares. That means that it only took 450 more shares of selling than buying to move ASPN 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.
