BUYINS.NET: Market Maker Surveillance Report. Highest Net Sell Volume and Negative Price Friction Stocks For March 24, 2009
(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
RDATE:25032009
BUYINS.NET, www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market
Maker Friction Factor Report for March 24, 2009. Since late October
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 Tuesday there were 3,358 companies with "abnormal"
market making 1,960 companies with positive Friction Factors and 3,599
companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top 6
companies with the highest net sell volume on Tuesday and lowest
negative price Friction (bearish). This means that there was more
selling than buying in the stocks and their stock prices dropped faster
with less Friction. Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE: WFC), Fifth Third
Bancorp (NASDAQ: FITB), JP Morgan Chase (NYSE: JPM), Kimco Realty
(NYSE: KIM), Duke Realty (NYSE: DRE) and United Microelectronics (NYSE:
UMC). To access Friction Factor, Naked Short Data and SqueezeTrigger

Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six
stocks mentioned above have low price friction combined with more
selling than buying (negative Net Volume) 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 WFC down -$1.77 with a Friction
Factor of -51,851 and a Net Volume of -9,177,598. That means that it
takes 51,851 more shares of selling than buying to drop WFC by one
penny. On Tuesday the Market Makers allowed the stock to move down on
heavier selling than buying (low negative friction).

About BUYINS.NET
WWW.BUYINS.NET is a service designed to help bonafide shareholders of
publicly traded US companies fight naked short selling. Naked short
selling is the illegal act of short selling a stock when no affirmative
determination has been made to locate shares of the stock to
hypothecate in connection with the short sale. Buyins.net has built a
proprietary database that uses Threshold list feeds from NASDAQ, AMEX
and NYSE to generate detailed and useful information to combat the
naked short selling problem. For the first time, actual trade by trade
data is available to the public that shows the attempted size, actual
size, price and average value of short sales in stocks that have been
shorted and naked shorted. This information is valuable in determining
the precise point at which short sellers go out-of-the-money and start
losing on their short and naked short trades.
BUYINS.NET has built a massive database that collects, analyzes and
publishes a proprietary SqueezeTrigger for each stock that has been
shorted. The SqueezeTrigger database of nearly 2,500,000,000 short sale
transactions goes back to January 1, 2005 and calculates the exact
price at which the Total Short Interest is short in each stock. This
data was never before available prior to January 1, 2005 because the
Self Regulatory Organizations (primary exchanges) guarded it
aggressively. After the SEC passed Regulation SHO, exchanges were
forced to allow data processors like Buyins.net to access the data.
The SqueezeTrigger database collects individual short trade data on
over 7,000 NYSE, AMEX and NASDAQ stocks and general short trade data on
nearly 8,000 OTCBB and PINKSHEET stocks. Each month the database grows
by approximately 50,000,000 short sale transactions and provides
investors with the knowledge necessary to time when to buy and sell
stocks with outstanding short positions. By tracking the size and price
of each month's short transactions, BUYINS.NET provides institutions,
traders, analysts, journalists and individual investors the exact price
point where short sellers start losing money and a short squeeze can
begin.
