Tokyo stocks fell Monday morning as a comparatively firm yen sent exporters lower, while uncertainty over U.S. President Donald Trump's economic policies pressured financial issues.

The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average lost 291.74 points, or 1.51 percent, from Friday to 18,970.79.

The broader Topix index of all First Section issues on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, meanwhile, dropped 21.08 points, or 1.37 percent, to 1,522.84.

Notable issues that lost ground by the morning break comprised insurance, securities and real estate-linked issues. Endit
