Japanese share market finished the session slightly lower by the close of trade on Friday, 02 May 2014, as profit-taking set in after the prior session's strong rise. Meanwhile weakness in Sony shares after an earnings forecast cut also weighed on the market. The benchmark Nikkei 225 index eased 27.62 points to finish at 14,457.51, while the Topix index of all first-section shares was flat, inching up 0.02%, or 0.28 points to 1,182.48. Markets will be closed on Monday and Tuesday.
