All 33 TSE first-section sector sub-indexes ended down, with Iron & Steel, Marine Transportation, Nonferrous Metals, Land Transportation, Electric Power & Gas, Real Estate, and Banks issues being major losers. The Nikkei Stock Average stumbled 399.86 points, or 2.1%, to end at 18683.24 points. The broader Topix index has lost 2%, or 31.23 points, to 1526.97 at the close.
