The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average surged 1,092.88 points or 6.72 percent from Wednesday to close the day at 17,344.42,.

The broader Topix index of all First Section issues on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, meanwhile, jumped 75.19 points or 5.78 percent to end at 1,376.35.

Most notably comprising insurance, securities and banking-linked stocks, all industry categories closed in positive territory on the main section.

The day's turnover was 3,412.5 billion yen (32.32 billion U.S. dollars).
