U.S. stocks climbed Friday, putting the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite on track for their best week since 2011. The S&P 500 rose 0.5%, while the Nasdaq Composite gained 0.3%. For the week, the indexes are up 4.8% and 5.9%, respectively, set for their best week since Dec. 2, 2011. Friday’s modest gains extend stocks’ rebound from a pullback that sent both the Dow and the S&P 500 into correction territory a week earlier. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng, which was closed Friday, rose over 5% for the week, its best performance since April 2015.
