Just FYI, common typographical conventions dicate that punctuation at
the end of a sentence is not emphasized.  There is one exception, and
that is when the punctuation occours inside of a quotation and the
quotation marks are emphasized.  So, given your two examples, the
trailing period should not be bold-faced.
