11 December 2003, 09:36 Tokyo stocks end up 1%, over 10.000 on yen fall
TOKYO, Dec 11 - Japan's Nikkei average rebounded over one percent to end above 10,000 on Thursday, with auto makers and other exporters like Canon Inc <7751.T> climbing after suspected Bank of Japan intervention sent the yen lower.
The tech-heavy Nikkei index <.N225> finished up 1.66 percent or 164.58 points at 10,075.14.
The rise was not strong enough to completely make up for the previous day's 2.11 percent decline when chip-related firms posted falls on disappointing earnings in the industry.
The broader TOPIX index <.TOPX> put on 1.06 percent to 990.93.//
