TOKYO, Sept 3 (Reuters) - Japan's Nikkei stock average lost 0.4 percent on Thursday as exporters fell on worries about the U.S. economy after dismal jobs data, while Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma rose on news it would bid for a U.S. drug firm.
The dollar briefly fell below 92 yen for the first time since mid-July, putting additional pressure on firms such as Canon Inc, but Fast Retailing climbed after saying it was eyeing new markets.
The benchmark Nikkei shed 41.78 points to 10,238.68, while the broader Topix fell 0.6 percent to 944.23. (Reporting by Elaine Lies)
