New Delhi, Nov. 17 -- Some of Japan's top tourism and retail stocks suffered deep losses in intraday tard on Monday, even as the key index Nikkei declined by almost a per cent after China warned its citizens against travelling to the country amid escalating diplomatic tensions between the two Asian nations.

Shares of Shiseido Co., a major cosmetics company, crashed 11.4 per cent during the session, while those of Pan Pacific International Holdings, a major Japanese retail company which operates Don Quijote retail stores, plunged almost 10 per cent.
