Back on August 16, with the Dow opening under 13,000 for the first time since April, our BloggingStocks experts outlined a number of stock plays to ride out this volatile market. Picks ranged from Dow components and other household names to obscure business-to-business giants and foreign market leaders. Here, we review our picks weekly.
Our third week following our "Stocks for a Volatile Market" feature finds a couple of our volatile market picks bruised, but as an index, our selections continue to lead both the Dow and Nasdaq.
At the front of the pack: How much longer can Peter Cohan's pick Posco (NYSE: PKX) keep up its fortunes? Already sitting 19% higher as of last Thursday's close, the South Korean steelmaker has since climbed 6.5% further, closing yesterday at $157.69, $33.68 higher than its August 15 closing price.

China's Huaneng Power International Inc. (NYSE: HNP), Sheldon Liber's tip, gave back some gains in the last week, retreating 1.71%, but remaining a healthy 18% higher than its August 16 opening price. Another pick from Sheldon, Anadarko Petroleum (NYSE: APC), is our last recommendation that's outperforming the Nasdaq -- since trailing both the Dow and the Nasdaq last week, Anadarko has padded its shares by $2.07, and fetches 6.57% more than on August 16.
