Japanese stocks decline on tech sell-off

Shares of chip manufacturing and AI equipment companies fell between 4% and 6.6%. However, the broader TOPIX index experienced only a modest decline of 0.4%, supported by falling oil prices and rising shares of food companies, such as Cikoman, whose stock increased by over 12%.
