Israel to continue acting against Iran's nuclear program: Netanyahu
Tokyo stocks ended mixed Monday as investors took profits in recently outperforming heavyweight technology shares, while falling crude oil prices eased inflation concerns.
The benchmark 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average edged down 6.38 points, or 0.01 percent, to close at 69737.69 points.
The broader Topix index, meanwhile, extended its gains to a sixth straight session, finishing up 37.36 points, or 0.92 percent, at a record close of 4,101.96.
The Nikkei spent most of the day in negative territory as investors locked in gains on heavyweight chip- and artificial intelligence-related stocks, although dip-buying briefly lifted the index into positive territory.
At the same time, the retreat in crude oil prices to levels seen before the Middle East conflict helped ease inflation concerns and support market sentiment, analysts said.
