Japan's Nikkei average closed flat on Friday but posted a gain of 3 per cent on the week, its biggest weekly rise in three months, with foreign investors starting to tiptoe back into the market.
The benchmark average, which stayed within a sight of a one-month high hit earlier in the week, moved in and out of negative territory throughout the day, with support holding near 9,800, its 25-day moving average.
The benchmark Nikkei fell 4.38 points to 9,995.02, while the broader Topix slipped 0.3 per cent to 884.64.
