Tokyo--Jan. 12--Japan's domestic wholesale price index (WPI) fell 0.1% on year in December, slowing from a 0.2% on-year fall in November, the Bank of Japan said. The December figure was better than economists' average expectation of a 0.3% fall, and was in line with the BOJ's assessment in its November financial and economic report that domestic WPI was on a slight decline.
