The Japan share market advanced for third straight session on Tuesday, 21 June 2016, thanks to a pause in the yen's appreciation against greenback amid bets the U.K. will opt to stay in the European Union in Thursday's vote. But gains were limited ahead of testimony from Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen and the outcome of the June 23 referendum on Britain's European Union membership. The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average gained 203.81 points, or 1.28%, to 16,169.11. The broader Topix index of all First Section issues on the Tokyo Stock Exchange was up 14.71 points, or 1.15%, to 1,293.90.
