 Tokyo stocks ended mixed Friday amid continued concerns over a recent surge in US bond yields and higher interest rates, but losses were trimmed ahead of the release of key US jobs data.

The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average lost 65.79 points, or 0.23 percent, from Thursday to close the day at 28,864.32.

The broader Topix index of all First Section issues on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, meanwhile, added 11.44 points, or 0.61 percent, to finish at 1,896.18.

Real estate, service and marine transportation-linked issues comprised those that declined the most by the close of play.
