TOKYO, March 5 (Reuters) - The Nikkei share average fell 3.3 percent on Monday, its biggest one-day tumble in nine months and a new low for 2007, as investors continued to dump exporters such as Toyota Motor Corp. (7203.T: Quote, NEWS , Research) and Canon Inc. (7751.T: Quote, NEWS , Research) following the yen's rise.

The sell-off pushed the benchmark share average below the psychologically important 17,000 level for the first time in nearly two months and left investors wondering when stocks will rebound.

The Nikkei <.N225> tumbled 575.68 points to 16,642.25, its lowest close since December and its biggest one-day percentage loss since June 2006.
