TOKYO, (APP/AFP) – Tokyo stocks rose Wednesday
despite a global equities rout sparked by fears over Britain leaving the EU, as the market was lifted by bargain-hunting ahead of US and Japanese central banks policy announcements.
The benchmark Nikkei 225 index gained 0.38 percent, or 60.58 points, to close at 15,919.58, while the broader Topix index of all first-section shares was up 0.41 percent, or 5.18 points, at 1,277.11.
