Emerging-market stocks rise after Bernanke's comments
Developing countries' stocks gained after Bernanke said that the Fed will continue its stimulus program. The MSCI Emerging Markets Index jumped 2.6% to 939.04 so far today, however, the gauge is still 10% below its level on May 22 when the Fed indicated it might start tapering its stimulus.
