TOKYO, Oct 2 (Reuters) - Japan's Nikkei average hit a two- month closing low on Friday after data stirred worries that the U.S. economic recovery may be losing momentum and as a rise in the yen hits exporters such as Tokyo Electron.
The Nikkei fell 2.5 percent or 246.77 points to 9,731.87, its lowest close since July 22. The average slid 5.2 percent on the week for its biggest weekly drop in about three months.
The broader Topix dropped 2.4 percent to 874.67 on Friday. (Reporting by Masayuki Kitano)
