TOKYO, May 15 (Xinhua) -- Tokyo stocks were flat Wednesday morning in choppy trade with a rise in Chinese stocks supporting buying, while weak earnings by Japanese firms recently prompted selling.

The broader Topix index of all First Section issues on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, meanwhile, edged 0.47 point, or 0.03 percent, lower to 1,534.51.
