Market Maker Surveillance Report. MEMS, SQNM, VVUS, OCLR, STV, BGMD, Winning Stocks With Lowest Price Friction For Wednesday, November 21st 2012


Nov 22, 2012 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- 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 4066 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3153 companies with positive Friction Factors and 2036 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage gain per share Wednesday and low price friction (bullish). This means that there was more buying than selling in the stocks and their stock prices rose faster with less Friction. Memsic Inc (NASDAQ:MEMS), Sequenom Inc (NASDAQ:SQNM), Vivus Inc (NASDAQ:VVUS), Oclaro Inc (NASDAQ:OCLR), China Digital Tv Holding Co Ltd (NYSE:STV), BG Medicine Inc (NASDAQ:BGMD).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below: Symbol Change Percent Buy Volume Buy %% Sell Volume Sell %% Net Volume Friction MEMS $1.250 71.84% 886,376 51.65% 806,653 47.00% 79,723 638 SQNM $0.560 15.20% 3,785,318 55.77% 3,002,406 44.23% 782,912 13,981 VVUS $1.440 13.91% 8,708,784 52.39% 7,818,789 47.03% 889,995 6,181 OCLR $0.180 12.27% 712,914 67.74% 339,225 32.23% 373,689 20,761 STV $0.820 50.93% 1,126,108 32.35% 1,079,098 31.00% 47,010 573 BGMD $0.130 11.50% 789,397 64.87% 427,422 35.13% 361,975 27,844 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 MEMS with a dollar gain Wednesday of $1.25000 and a Friction Factor of 638 shares. That means that it only took 638 more shares of buying than selling to move MEMS higher by one penny. The Market Makers are currently allowing the stock to rise quickly (low friction). The combination of low friction and positive market direction can drive prices higher much faster than normal.
