January 18, 2017 / M2 PRESSWIRE / BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Wednesday. 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 Wednesday there were 5361 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3054 companies with positive Friction Factors and 3097 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage loss per share Wednesday 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. Pearson plc (NYSE:PSO), Magellan Petroleum Corporation (NASDAQ:MPET), EnteroMedics Inc. (NASDAQ:ETRM), Pulmatrix Inc. (NASDAQ:PULM), Yulong Eco-Materials Ltd (NASDAQ:YECO), World Media & Technology Corp (PINK:WRMT).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:

  Symbol  Change    Percent   Buy Volume   Buy %%    Sell Volume  Sell %%   Net Volume   Friction
  PSO     $-2.860   -0.29%    1,191,627    34.46%    1,247,492    36.08%    -55,865      -195    
  MPET    $-2.790   -0.18%    329,269      30.92%    354,273      33.27%    -25,004      -90     
  ETRM    $-3.180   -0.36%    3,931,871    35.87%    4,049,690    36.95%    -117,819     -371    
  PULM    $-0.540   -0.35%    944,690      34.95%    1,103,044    40.81%    -158,354     -2,932  
  YECO    $-0.230   -0.18%    36,672       28.00%    54,631       41.71%    -17,959      -781    
  WRMT    $-7.169   -0.39%    63,174       30.10%    102,967      49.07%    -39,793      -56     
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 PSO with a dollar loss Wednesday of $-2.86000 and a Friction Factor of -195 shares. That means that it only took 195 more shares of selling than buying to move PSO 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.
