Japanese share market closed higher in light volume on Friday, 03 April 2015, as investors continued value buying after heavy losses early this week. But gains were limited on caution ahead of the release of key U.S. employment figures later on Friday for clues about timing for the Federal Reserve interest rates hike. The benchmark Nikkei 225 index advanced 122.29 points, or 0.63%, to finish at 19435.08, while the broader Topix index of all first-section shares grew 10 points, or 0.64%, to 1564.16.
