TOKYO, Dec. 3 (Xinhua) -- Tokyo stocks closed lower Tuesday after inheriting a weak lead from Wall Street overnight as subpar U.S. manufacturing data sparked concerns over the outlook for the world's largest economy.

The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average lost 149.69 points, or 0.64 percent, from Monday to close the day at 23,379.81.

The broader Topix index of all First Section issues on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, meanwhile, fell 7.76 points, or 0.45 percent, to finish at 1,706.73.

Farm and fishery, iron and steel, and land transportation-linked issues comprised those that declined the most by the close of play.
