3 September 2001, 10:25 Japan stocks decline 0.7% despite Wall St rebound
Tokyo, Sept. 3 (BridgeNews) - Japanese shares ended the morning
session lower after fluctuating without clear direction in light trading
volume despite the rebound made by U.S. shares on Friday. High-technology
shares were one of the major victims with sentiment undermined by a steep
fall in Hitachi Ltd.
(JP;6501), which announced a steep downward revision of its earnings
outlook.
The Nikkei 225 Stock Average fell 75.14 points, or 0.7%, to 10,638.37.
