Tokyo, July 13 (BridgeNews) - Japanese shares ended the morning session lower following Thursday's strong rally. Overnight gains on Wall Street caused by positive earnings news from Yahoo! (YHOO), Motorola (MOT) and Microsoft (MSFT) failed to boost local shares further, having already been priced in Thursday. The Nikkei 225 Stock Average fell 39.44 points, or 0.3%, to 12,368.51.
