TOKYO, Jan 26 (Reuters): Japanese stocks fell on Monday as a
resounding election win for Greece's anti-austerity Syriza party raised
the prospect of conflict with the country's international lenders,
dampening investors' appetite for risk.
The Nikkei benchmark fell 0.5 per cent to 17,418.82 points by 0138 GMT, after opening down 1.3 per cent.
Last
week, the average gained 3.8 per cent to reach a near one-month high of
17,511.75 after the European Central Bank (ECB) unveiled a bond-buying
scheme to help revive the euro zone's flagging economy.
