(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) 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 3942 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3560 companies with positive Friction Factors and 1802 companies with negative Friction Factors. 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. NTT Docomo Inc (NYSE:DCM), Hewlett-Packard Co (NYSE:HPQ), Groupon Inc (NASDAQ:GRPN), First Solar Inc (NASDAQ:FSLR), Clearwire Corp (NASDAQ:CLWR), Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below: Symbol Change Percent Buy Volume Buy %% Sell Volume Sell %% Net Volume Friction DCM $-0.090 -0.58% 1,161,255 63.82% 552,856 30.38% 608,399 Abnormal HPQ $-0.020 -0.10% 10,031,233 34.11% 8,959,319 30.46% 1,071,914 Abnormal GRPN $-1.200 -21.62% 14,601,225 51.55% 13,586,689 47.96% 1,014,536 Abnormal FSLR $-4.310 -13.74% 11,670,487 52.82% 10,374,263 46.96% 1,296,224 Abnormal CLWR $-0.020 -0.63% 2,852,920 56.27% 2,216,606 43.72% 636,314 Abnormal FB $-0.590 -2.15% 22,661,332 51.43% 21,079,104 47.84% 1,582,228 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 DCM with 608,399 greater shares of buying than selling (NetVol) and the stock price was down $-0.09000. 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.
