[TOKYO] Tokyo stocks opened higher on Friday but trading was lacklustre with the absence of fresh market-moving events as the US market was closed for the Thanksgiving holiday.

The benchmark Nikkei 225 index was up 0.29 per cent, or 67.99 points, at 23,477.13 in early trade, while the broader Topix index edged up 0.19 per cent, or 3.28 points, to 1,711.34.
