TOKYO, April 10 (Xinhua) -- Tokyo stocks dropped Wednesday morning as investor sentiment was dented by the IMF revising down its growth outlook, while subpar machinery orders data also weighed on the market mood.

The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average lost 143.43 points, or 0.66 percent, from Tuesday to 21,659.16.

The broader Topix index of all First Section issues on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, meanwhile, fell 13.22 points, or 0.82 percent, at 1,605.54.

Oil and coal product, mining and electric appliances-linked issues comprised those that declined the most by the morning break. Enditem
