Tokyo stocks ended the day with mixed results, as the Nikkei Stock Average rose 141.10 points, or 0.38%, to close at 37,028.27, while the broader Topix index fell 7.83 points, or 0.29%, to 2,700.76. The gains in the Nikkei were driven by bargain-hunting in shares that had been battered in recent declines, particularly in the mining and precision instrument sectors. However, concerns over U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff policies and their potential impact on the global economy limited the upside, with top decliners including iron and steel and banking issues. Chip shares rallied, contributing to the gains after a recent sell-off. The U.S. dollar weakened to the lower 147 yen range in Tokyo, influenced by weaker-than-expected U.S. nonfarm payroll and jobless data, which fueled worries about the U.S. economy. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Japanese government bond reached 1.565%, its highest since October 2008, amid speculation that the Bank of Japan might increase interest rates sooner than expected. Higher borrowing costs weighed on the market sentiment. In Asia, other markets also showed mixed performances. The ASX 200 in Australia rose by 0.3%, while the Kospi in South Korea fell by 0.2%. The Nikkei 225 in Japan remained flat, reflecting the cautious sentiment among investors amid ongoing tariff concerns and soft Chinese inflation data. The Nikkei had bounced off a six-month low earlier in the day.
