Nikkei slips, dragged lower by carmakers


    TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan's Nikkei stock average slipped on Friday, dragged lower by Toyota Motor and slumping auto shares ahead of the end of a U.S. rebate program, with investors keeping a nervous eye on volatile China shares.

    Exporters slipped in the wake of mixed U.S. economic data, with a slightly stronger yen also having an impact.

    The benchmark NIKKEI (NIKKEI225.) lost 1.3 percent or 133.10 points to 10,250.31. a day after climbing 1.8 percent.

    The broader Topix slipped 1.2 percent to 947.22.
