"Last week, stocks markets rose and the dollar weakened after the Fed's minutes raised easing speculation, but the markets are short of catalysts to maintain such expectations"
- Ayako Sera, a market strategist at Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank Ltd.

Japanese stocks fell on Tuesday after the government cut growth outlook.

The Nikkei 225 Stock Average fell 0.57 per cent, or 52.10 points, to 9,033.29. The broader Topix Index lost 1.20 per cent, or 9.07, to 746.30.

"Last week, stocks markets rose and the dollar weakened after the Fed's minutes raised easing speculation, but the markets are short of catalysts to maintain such expectations," said Ayako Sera, a market strategist at Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank Ltd.

"That's why investors are focusing on Bernanke's speech in Jackson Hole at the end of this week."
