TOKYO: Tokyo’s benchmark index has ended flat, with a weaker yen helping recover early losses driven by disappointment over the Bank of Japan holding off fresh stimulus measures and a fall on Wall Street.
The Nikkei 225 index at the Tokyo Stock Exchange, which tumbled 2.69 per cent on Thursday, inched up 0.06 per cent, or 11.62 points, to close Friday at 19,531.63.
The broader Topix index of all first-section shares fell 0.45 per cent, or 7.18 points, to 1,585.61.
