The FINANCIAL — The Nikkei Stock Average trimmed its losses in mid-afternoon trade December 6, according to Nikkei.com.
A shortage of fresh buying incentives kept investors noncommittal.
The benchmark index was temporarily moving around the upper-10,100 yen level, about 10 yen down from Friday's close.
With prices of key issues trading slowly, small- and mid-cap issues attracted buyers.
Canon Inc. (7751), Oki Electric Industry Co. (6703) and KDDI Corp. (9433) were down in late trade, while Kobe Steel Ltd. (5406), Mitsui Chemicals Inc. (4183) and Fuji Electric Holdings Co. (6504) were higher.
