Tokyo stocks ended higher Tuesday as US stocks were lifted after Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen signaled the US central bank may raise interest rates gradually later this year, while a weaker yen also improved sentiment.
The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average ended up 95.42 points, or 0.58%, from Monday at 16,675.45. The broader Topix index of all First Section issues on the Tokyo Stock Exchange finished 8.34 points, or 0.63%, higher at 1,340.77, according to Japan's (Kyodo) News Agency.
Gainers were led by mining, oil and coal products and miscellaneous product issues.
