Tokyo stocks open higher, supported by bank sector

TOKYO, Nov 16 (Reuters) - Tokyo stocks gained ground in early morning trade on Monday, supported by a rise in the banking sector, traders said.

News on Sunday that Sumitomo Bank Ltd was considering applying for an injection of public funds of about 400 billion to 500 billon yen and also carrying out reforms raised hopes that the bank's plans would prompt other banks' restructuring, they said.

In the first 10 minutes of trade, the Nikkei 225 average was up 172.80 points or 1.21 percent at 14,441.01.

Nikkei December futures were up 70 points at 14,390.

The Japanese government will announce on Monday an economic stimulus package, which is expected to top 20 trillion yen, but the stock market has factored in the expected contents, traders said.

Apratim,

Barrons has an article this week on DELL which states that the increase in the "Other" category on the balance sheet was due to tax credit associated with the exercise of DELL options. You might want to check this out.

I would be interested in knowing what this is all about.

Regards,

Jim Kelley

DELL-Cost savings on Internet sales.

Apratim:
I am still trying to get you a number on the savings (cost advantage) gained by DELL when each 'regular' order is converted in to an internet order.

Man I didn't know you Bengalis were sticklers for numbers.<vbg>
