TOKYO, Nov 5 ― Tokyo stocks closed lower today on profit-taking ahead of key US payroll data due later in the day.
“The Nikkei index opened slightly higher following gains by US tech shares, but it soon fell into negative territory as a wait-and-see sentiment grew ahead of the US jobs data,” Okasan Online Securities said in a note. Honda tumbled 3.09 per cent to ¥3,409. The automaker said after the market close that it projects net profit of ¥555 billion for the current fiscal year, down from an earlier estimate of ¥670 billion.
