For the week, the S&P 500 posted losses of 0.4 percent and the Dow fell 0.32 percent losses of roughly 0.30 percent, while the Nasdaq fell 0.71 percent. European officials told Reuters that the odds of a deal at Saturday's meeting 'were better than 50 percent' as creditors may be willing to reschedule the country's debt payment.

The clock is ticking as Greece has a payment due to the International Monetary Fund on June 30. Also on Friday, the Russell 2000, an index of small-cap stocks, was reshuffled in an annual event that tends to result in the busiest trading day of the year.
