Tokyo stocks closed mixed on Tuesday amid concerns over rising long-term interest rates in Japan, while the market's downside was buoyed by positive U.S. stock futures.
Japan's benchmark Nikkei stock index, the 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average, ended down 44.65 points, or 0.11 percent, from Monday at 38,855.37.

Market watchers here noted the yield on the benchmark 10-year Japanese government bond briefly rose 0.015 percentage point from Monday's close to 1.035 percent, its highest level since April 2012, amid speculation that the Bank of Japan is shifting away from monetary easing measures.
