Japanese stocks rise as Yen falls
Japanese stocks advanced, with the regional benchmark Topix index gaining for a fourth straight day, as the Japanese Yen depreciated and the Fed's Bernanke calmed worries on winding down monetary stimulus. The Topix climbed 0.7% to 1,222.01 at the close Tokyo time, while the Nikkei 225 Stock Average added 1.3% to 14,808.50.
