TOKYO, Dec. 3 (Chinese media) -- Tokyo stocks rebounded

Wednesday, mostly because of the overnight rally in Wall Street and bargain

hunting.

140.41 points, or 1.79 percent, from Tuesday to 8,004.10.

The broader Topix index of all First Section issues

on the Tokyo Stock Exchange was up 12.07 points, or 1.53 percent, to 799.19.

paper issues. Decliners were led by sea transport, transport equipment such as

auto issues, and rubber product issues.
