TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan's Nikkei share average dipped 0.1 percent on Monday, weighed down by profit-taking as the yen recovered against the dollar after weak U.S. jobs data.
But overseas fund operators and Japanese retail investors were looking to buy on dips, limiting losses for the Nikkei, analysts said.
The Nikkei closed the day down 11.09 points at 10,167.23.
The broader Topix index rose 0.3 percent to 881.41.
