Nikkei rebounds from five-week low

The Japanese share market rebounded strongly from five weeks low on Friday, 11 December 2015, as bottom fishing on recently battered stocks underpinned after positive finish of the Wall Street overnight and depreciation of yen against the greenback. Total 27 out of 33 TSE industry groups ascent, with the day's notable gainers comprised Pharmaceutical, Iron & Steel, Electric Appliances, Transportation Equipment, Air Transportation, and Machinery issues. The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average rebounded 183.93 points, or 0.97%, to 19230.48. The Topix index of all Tokyo Stock Exchange First Section issues grew 9.16 points, or 0.59%, to 1549.51.
