TOKYO, Oct 1 (Reuters) - Japan's Nikkei average hit its lowest point in two months on Thursday, with exporters such as Advantest Corp sagging on concerns that the yen's recent strength may eat into their overseas profits.
The benchmark Nikkei dropped 1.5 percent to 9,980.62, after briefly touching 9,970.33, its lowest since late July.
The broader Topix fell 1.5 percent to 896.15. (Reporting by Aiko Hayashi)
