TOKYO, Dec 6 (Reuters) - Japan's Nikkei was flat on Monday, below a six-month high hit last week, as concerns persist over the speed of a global recovery after worse-than-expected U.S. jobs data sent the dollar lower against the yen.
Nikkei is seen moving in a tight range, with many analysts viewing the weak employment report as an outlier amid the recent slew of generally positive U.S. data that suggested the economy was slowly gaining traction.
The benchmark Nikkei was flat at 10,169.45, and the broader Topix index stayed almost unchanged at 879.77. (Reporting by Antoni Slodkowski; Editing by Joseph Radford)
