TOKYO, Jan. 11 (Xinhua) -- Tokyo shares ended the morning session higher on Wednesday, reversing recent losses with the Nikkei index growing for the first time in four trading days.
But gains were limited as investors kept cautious ahead of a press conference to be delivered by U.S. President-elect Donald Trump later in the day.
The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average added 69.42 points, or 0.36 percent, from Tuesday to 19,370.86.
The broader Topix index of all First Section issues on the Tokyo Stock Exchange rose 8.06 points, or 0.52 percent, to 1,550.37.
Gainers were led by iron and steel, nonferrous metal, and oil and coal product.
