The Japanese stock market index closed lower today, Wednesday, amid a decline in stocks that are sensitive to economic developments in the wake of weaker-than-expected data for the labor market in the United States, while the rise in the yen negatively affected morale.
The Nikkei index fell by 0.89% to reach 38,490.17 points, while the broader Topix index fell by 1.41% to end its trading at 2,748.22 points.
