Tokyo shares hit year-to-date low on Brexit vote www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/
Tokyo stocks plunged to a new low for the year on Friday on the news that "Leave" voters had secured a majority in the referendum on Britain's membership of the EU.
On the Tokyo Stock Exchange, share prices fell across the board on Friday afternoon after the BBC reported that the "Leave" camp was set to win.
The benchmark Nikkei Average briefly lost more than 1,300 points to fall below 15,000.
The index ended the day at 14,952, down 1,286 points from Thursday's close.
The drop is larger than the previous record one-day fall marked after the 2008 global financial crisis.
The TOPIX index of all first-section issues lost 94 points to finish at 1,204.
Market players say the global economic outlook has become even more uncertain after the British vote.
They say markets are in a state of shock because polls indicated that the "Remain" camp was in the lead.
