Tokyo stocks were higher Wednesday morning on bargain hunting spurred by Wall Street gains overnight amid firm earning reports by U.S. firms.
The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average rose 404.57 points, or 1.30 percent, from Tuesday to 31,466.92. The broader Topix index was up 28.41 points, or 1.27 percent, at 2,269.14.
On the top-tier Prime Market, gainers were led by oil and coal product, transportation equipment and wholesale trade issues.
