 TOKYO (AP) - Japanese stocks rose slightly Wednesday for a third straight session, led by bank shares.
The benchmark Nikkei 225 stock index rose 25.07 points, or 0.14 percent to finish at 17,705.12 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. On Tuesday, the index added 0.7 percent.
Traders said the market is vulnerable to overseas factors, particularly a drop on Wall Street or signs of a slowdown in the U.S. economy, Japan's biggest export market.
