 TOKYO (AP) - Japanese stocks rebounded from a two-day loss Monday as high copper and other commodities futures in New York on Friday boosted materials producers such as Sumitomo Metal Mining.
The Nikkei 225 index rose 106.38 points, or 0.6 percent, to 17,587.59, recouping some of Friday's 1.22 percent drop.
Trade was thin as U.S. stock markets were closed Monday for the Memorial Day holiday. Turnover on the Tokyo Stock Exchange's First Section was the lowest for full-day trading since Dec. 28.
