[43 lines irrelevant to AIDS have been removed.  -- sysop]

    Index-linked buying from arbitragers and investment trust
 funds pushed up a wide range of shares including banks that
 have a big weighting in the Topix index.  Apart from that,
 trading was again dominated by dealers, who focused their
 buying on AIDS-related biotechnology companies and other
 small-capital issues whose prices often rise on just small
 amounts of buying, traders said.
    Gainers on the AIDS theme included Ajinomoto, which rose
 30 yen to 1270 yen (24 cents to $10.13), Mochida
 Pharmaceutical, which was up 80 yen to 3680 yen, and Takara
 Shuzo, which gained 20 yen to 635 yen.  Mercian was up 44 yen
 to 725 yen.
