Japan share market declined for the first time in four consecutive sessions on Thursday, 03 July 2014, as profit-taking emerged on overheating woes after the benchmark index raised nearly 10% over the past six weeks. However, the yen depreciation against the greenback helped to limit losses. The benchmark Nikkei 225 index edged 0.14% down to finish at 15348.29, while the Topix index of all first-section shares lost 0.17% to 1278.59.
