The market surged this week, helped along by the Fed's announcement of more stimulus today. The Dow (INDEX: ^DJI) was up 2.2%, the S&P 500 (INDEX: ^GSPC) was up 1.9%, and the Nasdaq (INDEX: ^IXIC) was up 1.5%. With that as context, let's look at the stocks thateverybody was talking about.

Although it didn't get named to the Dow, Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) stole the show this week with its epically awaited  iPhone 5 unveiling on Wednesday. There's been some grumbling that the new iPhone is "boring," but that's the price of amazing us consistently for a good half decade. It seems the only thing that could hold them back is not being able to roll out the donuts fast enough. That's a good problem to have.

Meanwhile, Facebook had, maybe, its first nice week since going public in May. Juiced by founder Mark Zuckerberg's first post-IPO interview, shares stormed ahead 16%, to end at $22. That's still a far cry from the IPO price of $38, but even a little sunshine in London is always appreciated.

On the Dow, Bank of America (NYSE: BAC) led the winners. It was up 8.5%, to end the week at $9.55. The Fed's stimulus move especially boosted bank shares,because of the obvious benefit of increased demand for mortgage-backed securities. And any boost to the economy is a boost for banks.
