Tokyo  - Tokyo stocks ended Friday morning trading mixed as Japan's economic data indicated a incrased industrial output but also a worsening unemployment rate.

The benchmark Nikkei 225 Stock Average was slightly up 5.78 points, or 0.06 per cent, to 9,457.17.

But the broader Topix index of all first-section issues was down 1.67 points, or 0.19 per cent, to 893.92.

While a governmen report showed Japan's April industrial output rose 5.2 per cent from the previous month, the fastest pace in 60 years; the jobless that month rate hit its highest level in five years, climbing to 5 per cent.

On the currency markets at 9 am (0000 GMT), the dollar traded at 96.70-75 yen, up from Thursday's 5 pm quote of 96.60-63 yen.

The euro traded at 1.3945-50 dollars, up from late Thursday's quote of 1.3878-81 dollars, and at 134.87-92 yen, up from 134.09-13 yen. (dpa)
