Japanese share market ended higher on Friday, 30 January 2015, as risk sentiments boosted up after better than expected domestic industrial output and retail sales data for last month. Meanwhile, buying momentum underpinned further by impressive earnings reports from several bellwether firms such as Nomura Holdings and Advantest Corp. The benchmark Nikkei Stock Average advanced 0.39% to close at 17674.39, while the broader Topix has lost 0.11% to close at 1415.07. For the week, the Nikkei index added 0.9%.
