TOKYO, April 20 ― Tokyo stocks opened higher today, helped by a cheaper yen and gains on Wall Street where investors were encouraged by better-than-expected US housing starts data and solid corporate earnings.

The dollar firmed to ¥129.23 from ¥128.89 in New York late yesterday, extending the yen's recent falls driven by higher US Treasury yields.
