BUYINS.NET: Market Maker Surveillance Report. Top 6 Highest Net Buy Volume With Lowest Price Friction Stocks For December 9, 2008Dec 10, 2008 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- BUYINS.NET, www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for December 9, 2008. 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 3,420 companies with "abnormal" market making, 2,098 companies with positive Friction Factors and 3,690 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top 6 companies with the highest net buy volume on Tuesday and lowest price Friction (bullish). This means that there was more buying than selling in the stocks and their stock prices rose faster with less Friction. Akamai Technologies (NASDAQ: AKAM), Altera Corp (NASDAQ: ALTR), Liberty Entertainment Group (NASDAQ: LMDIA), Juniper Networks (NASDAQ: JNPR), Agilent Technologies (NYSE: A) and StemCells (NASDAQ: STEM).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below: Symbol Change % BuyVol Buy% SellVol Sell% NetVol Friction AKAM $0.14 1.01% 3,997,674 51.94% 2,841,977 36.93% 1,155,697 82,550 ALTR $0.84 5.98% 8,642,867 52.76% 7,586,660 46.31% 1,056,207 12,574 LMDIA $0.30 2.70% 3,154,348 58.09% 2,151,338 39.62% 1,003,010 33,434 JNPR $0.93 5.45% 9,001,958 51.72% 8,279,895 47.57% 722,063 7,764 A $0.69 4.00% 4,553,750 48.55% 3,893,495 41.51% 660,255 9,569 STEM $0.18 18.18% 2,902,750 56.35% 2,248,125 43.65% 654,625 36,368 Click here to view chart: http://www.buyins.com/ff/ffnvup12-9-08.jpg Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have high net buy volumes (buy volume - sell volume) and 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 AKAM with a Net Buy Volume of 1,155,697 shares and a Friction Factor of 82,550 shares. That means that it takes 82,550 more shares of buying than selling to move AKAM higher by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to move up higher as of Tuesday (lower friction). And with one of the highest Net Buy Volumes, the combination of low friction and high net buy volume is bullish. Akamai Technologies, Inc.

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 2,200,000,000 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.
