February 28, 2017 / M2 PRESSWIRE / BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Tuesday. 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 Tuesday there were 5660 companies with "abnormal" market making, 1936 companies with positive Friction Factors and 4054 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage loss per share Tuesday and low price friction (bearish).

For example, the chart above shows LBY with a dollar loss Tuesday of $-2.85000 and a Friction Factor of -278 shares. That means that it only took 278 more shares of selling than buying to move LBY 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.
