May 14, 2013 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Monday. 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 Monday there were 3821 companies with "abnormal" market making, 2236 companies with positive Friction Factors and 3065 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the highest net sell volume on Monday and lowest negative price Friction (bearish). This means that there was more selling than buying in the stocks and their stock prices dropped faster with less Friction. Far East Energy Corp (OTC:FEEC), Flextronics International Ltd (NASDAQ:FLEX), General Electric Co (NYSE:GE), Micron Technology Inc (NASDAQ:MU), Brocade Communications Systems Inc (NASDAQ:BRCD), Clearwire Corp (NASDAQ:CLWR).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below:
Symbol Change Percent Buy Volume Buy %% Sell Volume Sell %% Net Volume Friction
FEEC $-0.016 -12.70% 315,933 10.60% 2,663,871 89.40% -2,347,938 -1,467,461
FLEX $-0.090 -1.25% 2,318,187 31.09% 5,131,944 68.82% -2,813,757 -312,640

MU $-0.150 -1.39% 10,175,121 45.35% 12,261,744 54.65% -2,086,623 -139,108
BRCD $-0.020 -0.32% 3,553,969 36.95% 6,036,727 62.76% -2,482,758 -1,241,379

Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have low price friction combined with more selling than buying (negative Net Volume) 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 FEEC down $-0.01600 with a Friction Factor of -1,467,461 and a Net Volume of -2,347,938. That means that it takes 1,467,461 more shares of selling than buying to drop FEEC by one penny. On Monday the Market Makers allowed the stock to move down on heavier selling than buying (low negative friction).
