 TOKYO (AP) - Japanese stocks rose to a seven-year high Thursday amid recent yen weakness, which helps the nation's key exporters, and optimism over the nation's economic outlook.
The Nikkei 225 index advanced for a sixth day, adding 28.62 points, or 0.16 percent, on the Tokyo Stock Exchange to 18,240.30 points — the highest close since May 2, 2000.
Over the past six sessions, the index has gained 2.86 percent.
