Japanese share market closed modest higher on Tuesday, 30 June 2015, registering first gain in four straight sessions, with large-cap stocks as well as defensive stocks, including telecoms and retailers, being major gainers. Market gain was, however, limited amid lingering concerns of stalemated negotiations over Greece's debt and its looming default deadline later in the day. The Nikkei Stock Average recovered 125.78 points, or 0.63%, to finish at 20235.73. The Topix index of all Tokyo Stock Exchange First Section issues jumped 0.34%, or 5.58 points, to close at 1630.40. The measure finished the quarter 5.7% higher.
