April 26, 2010 at 06:00 AM EDT
Stocks flipped out late Friday morning following an announcement of Greece's decision to seek help from the European Union and International Monetary Fund. But by the end of the session, cooler heads began to prevail and the major indexes ended well into the black, continuing the bull run. The Dow Jones Industrial Average , Standard & Poor's 500 and Nasdaq all closed about 1.1% lower for the session, but the week's results were a lot better: flat for the Dow and S&P 500, up 0.75% for the S&P Midcap 400 and up 1.7% for the S&P Smallcap 600 . Overseas large-caps ended the week flat, though China sank another 1%. Our own top choice overseas fared better, as Market Vectors Indonesia Index (NYSE: IDX ) closed the week up 4%. Another star off the week overseas was iShares MSCI Turkey Index Fund (NYSE: TUR ) , up 3%.
