Nikkei falls for first time in seven days

Japanese share market finished lower for the first time in seven consecutive sessions on Friday, 30 May 2014, hurt by profit-taking in recent high-performers due to stronger yen and weaker than expected factory output data. The benchmark Nikkei 225 index was down 0.34% to finish at 14,632.38, while the Topix index of all first-section shares eked out 0.06% gain to 1201.41.
