The Japan share market ended mixed after a volatile ride on Friday, 09 September 2016, as concerns over a North Korean nuclear test countered hopes for additional easing measures from the bank this month. Notable issues that gained by the close of play comprised marine transportation and mining-related issues. But those that lost ground were led by food and fishery, and agriculture and forestry-linked stocks. The Nikkei average added 7 points, or 0.04%, to end at 16965.76. The Topic index eased 2.09 points, or 0.16%, to end at 1343.86. Falling stocks outnumbered advancing ones on the Tokyo Stock Exchange by 1099 to 800 and 157 ended unchanged. The Nikkei Volatility, which measures the implied volatility of Nikkei 225 options, was down 6.10% to 20.46.
