The stock market in Tokyo pointed cautiously upwards after the Japanese central bank left the interest rate unchanged, a move that analysts believe has to do with Donald Trump's tariff policy.

The important Nikkei 225 showed a plus of 0.5 per cent shortly after the interest rate decision, while the broader Topix index grew 0.2.

The stock markets in China and South Korea are closed for the weekend.
