New headline--- "Judge's ruling sinks world economy" LOL!! Too many people worry too much......... TOKYO, Nov 8 (Reuters) - Tokyo stocks gave up their early gains and sank by midday on Monday, as uncertainty about the prospects for Microsoft Corp <MSFT.O> shares and their possible negative impact on Wall Street stocks left the Tokyo market wary. Traders said the concerns were underlined by a slide in S&P futures <0#SP:> traded on Globex, after news late on Friday that a U.S. federal judge said Microsoft, which just recently joined the Dow 30 <.DJI>, used its monopoly power to punish competitors. Stock indices also suffered from profit-taking amid concerns that shares in Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corp (NTT) <9432.T>, a leader in the telecommunications sector, may suffer a brief setback after a share offering expected later this week. The benchmark Nikkei average <.N225> was down 136.80 points or 0.75 percent at 18,218.10. December Nikkei futures <0#JNI:> dropped 100 points to 18,240. MORE * end of story *
