TOKYO (Reuters) - Shares in NEC Corp (news/quote) hit a 39-month low on Monday, falling along with other Japanese high-tech stocks after an avalanche of profit warnings for this business year spooked investors.

NEC shares fell as low as 897 yen, slipping below a post-attack low of 900 yen marked on October 2 last year to their lowest point since October 1998.

Japan's biggest PC supplier and second-largest chipmaker last Thursday doubled its forecast for group net losses to 300 billion yen ($2.25 billion) for the year to March as a year-long info-tech slump further eroded its earnings from personal computers and telecommunications hardware.

``There has been disappointing sentiment spread across the high-tech sector,'' said Masahiro Ono, an analyst at UBS Warburg.
