Overvaluation fears trumped a government report Friday that showed good second-quarter economic growth. As a result, all of our stock indexes ended lower and were substantially down for the week.

Meanwhile, the Nasdaq-100 Index tracking stock fell 23 cents Friday, or $32.56, a 0.7% decline for the day and a 5.8% decline for the week, with a huge 105.3 million shares traded.
