Feb 13, 2013 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Tuesday. 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 Tuesday there were 3957 companies with "abnormal" market making, 3100 companies with positive Friction Factors and 2248 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with Abnormal Price Friction (bullish bias) in their stock prices. This means that there was more selling than buying in the stocks and their stock prices rose. General Electric Co (NYSE:GE), Metalore Resources Ltd (NYSE:MET), EXXON MOBIL CORPORATION (NYSE:XOM), Yahoo! Inc (NASDAQ:YHOO), MICROSOFT CORPORATION (NASDAQ:MSFT), Oracle Corp (NASDAQ:ORCL).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below: Symbol Change Percent Buy Volume Buy %% Sell Volume Sell %% Net Volume Friction GE $0.130 0.58% 8,906,007 28.40% 15,330,941 48.88% -6,424,934 Abnormal MET $0.230 0.63% 1,587,388 25.20% 2,907,662 46.16% -1,320,274 Abnormal XOM $0.230 0.26% 1,860,882 19.15% 3,292,981 33.88% -1,432,099 Abnormal YHOO $0.280 1.34% 11,864,980 42.80% 15,834,381 57.12% -3,969,401 Abnormal MSFT $0.020 0.07% 16,521,206 46.21% 19,232,367 53.79% -2,711,161 Abnormal ORCL $0.160 0.46% 5,906,722 40.88% 8,501,408 58.83% -2,594,686 Abnormal Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above had more selling than buying on Tuesday and their stock prices rose. 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 GE with 6,424,934 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.13000. This means the Market Makers were trading the stock in a way inconsistent with normal supply and demand (Economics 101); more selling than buying should cause prices to drop.
