The Japan share market finished session down on Wednesday, 25 October 2017, snapping its longest winning streak that lasted for 16 straight sessions and in its nearly 70-year history, as investors locked in gains amid signs of temporary overheating in the market. The 225-issue Nikkei average dropped 97.55 points, or 0.45%, to end at 21,707.62. The TOPIX index of all first-section issues closed down 5.49 points, or 0.31%, at 1,751.43. Trading volume on the main section totaled 1,968.43 million shares, up from Tuesday's 1,571.56 million shares.
