European stocks steadied after equities in Asia ended a tumultuous week on a positive note. The dollar fell and Treasuries were little changed.

The Stoxx Europe 600 Index held gains from Thursday, while futures on U.S. indexes signaled a muted start across the Atlantic. Equities from Sydney to Hong Kong advanced, though Chinese shares underperformed. The Turkish lira was slightly stronger even after U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said Turkey would face more sanctions if the country didn’t release a detained American clergyman. Emerging markets steadied after a sell-off that had brought them to the brink of a bear market.

The possibility of a breakthrough in the U.S.-China trade dispute brought some calm to markets whipsawed by the brewing financial crisis in Turkey and renewed angst over technology stocks. While Asian equities headed toward their worst week since March, emerging-market stocks and commodities also finished the week in the red, as the trade war remains the wildcard for many markets.

“I don’t think we’re quite out of the woods yet,” Marcus Miholich, a managing director at State Street Global Advisors Ltd., told Bloomberg TV in Sydney. “Investors have definitely taken note of these tensions and have reallocated into more defensive sectors and defensive names. Given we don’t seem to have the light at the end of the tunnel just yet, that will continue.”

Elsewhere, oil was little changed, headed for a weekly loss amid the crisis in Turkey and after a surprise gain in U.S. crude stockpiles.
