TOKYO, Aug 7 (Reuters) - Japanese government bond futures hit a four-month high on Thursday on concerns about the outlook for Japan's economy and due to a fall in Tokyo share prices.

September 10-year JGB futures rose as high as 137.46 2JGBv1 for a gain of 0.27 point on the day, the highest level for a lead futures contract since late April. (Reporting by Masayuki Kitano; Editing by Hugh Lawson)
