Here is a list of the top companies with Abnormal Price Friction (bearish bias) in their stock prices. This means that there was more buying than selling in the stocks and their stock prices dropped.

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below: Symbol Change Percent Buy Volume Buy %% Sell Volume Sell %% Net Volume Friction MU $-0.710 -2.07% 19,420,176 53.75% 15,175,339 42.00% 4,244,837 Abnormal LYG $-0.020 -0.40% 9,813,447 61.25% 745,515 4.65% 9,067,932 Abnormal F $-0.190 -1.28% 18,887,184 34.09% 16,856,173 30.42% 2,031,011 Abnormal AMD $-0.070 -2.05% 11,887,700 36.08% 9,916,708 30.10% 1,970,992 Abnormal FMCKJ $-6.000 -58.25% 7,565,784 23.23% 5,476,279 16.81% 2,089,505 Abnormal ZNGA $-0.020 -0.74% 11,283,523 53.52% 9,307,432 44.15% 1,976,091 Abnormal Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more buying than selling on Wednesday and their stock prices dropped. 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 MU with 4,244,837 greater shares of buying than selling (NetVol) and the stock price was down $-0.71000. This means the Market Makers were trading the stock in a way inconsistent with normal supply and demand (Economics 101); more buying than selling should cause prices to rise.
