Here is a list of the top companies with the largest percentage loss per share Wednesday and low price friction (bearish).

Market Maker Friction Factor is shown in the chart below: Symbol Change Percent Buy Volume Buy %% Sell Volume Sell %% Net Volume Friction TELK $-0.140 -8.54% 40,814 37.44% 68,187 62.56% -27,373 -1,955 CALL $-2.010 -11.61% 907,101 48.75% 936,457 50.33% -29,356 -146 PPHM $-0.270 -11.59% 5,278,112 45.90% 6,216,999 54.07% -938,887 -34,774 PTEK $-0.210 -15.40% 48,669 25.29% 143,784 74.71% -95,115 -4,529 PLOW $-1.190 -8.42% 106,844 26.95% 112,437 28.37% -5,593 -47 UGAZ $-1.870 -9.69% 324,096 27.15% 476,227 39.90% -152,131 -814 Analysis of the Friction Factor chart above shows that each of the six stocks mentioned above have high net dollar losses (Change) and extremely 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 TELK with a dollar loss Wednesday of $-0.14000 and a Friction Factor of -1,955 shares. That means that it only took 1,955 more shares of selling than buying to move TELK lower by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to drop quickly (low friction). The combination of low friction and negative market direction can drive prices lower faster than normal.
