TOKYO, Feb. 2 (Xinhua) -- Tokyo stocks advanced Tuesday morning, as Wall Street's upbeat lead overnight settled investor jitters about further turbulence caused by retail investors taking on hedge funds known for shorting stocks and encouraged buying.

The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average added 285.15 points, or 1.02 percent, from Monday to 28,376.20.

The broader Topix index of all First Section issues on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, meanwhile, gained 17.56 points, or 0.96 percent, at 1,847.40.

Nonferrous metal, iron and steel, and mining-linked issues comprised those that gained the most by the morning break. Enditem
