(CNA Tokyo, July 3, Foreign News) The Japanese stock market closed higher today, with the Nikkei index breaking the 1,000-point mark. This was due to investors rotating funds into non-tech industries that had previously lagged the market, while maintaining a cautious wait-and-see approach towards volatile tech stocks.

The Nikkei 225 index, the benchmark for Japanese stocks, surged 1010.92 points, or 1.47%, to close at 69744.07.

The TOPIX index rose 49.62 points, or 1.24%, to close at 4064.60. (Compiled by: Li Pei-shan) 1150703
