Tokyo's main index closes lower as Asian shares are weighed down by Wall St's performance overnight

  • Session high 21,384.86
  • Session low 21,223.97

Tech wasn't the biggest drag on the Nikkei, but stocks managed to recover post-lunch break and close near the highs for the day.

Overall, it's still a poor outing for Asian equities in general as sentiment from US trading weighed on the mood today.
