The US economy grew at an annual pace of 3.5% between July and September, its first expansion in more than a year.
The growth was helped by a substantial government spending plan, including a scrappage scheme to boost car sales.

The White House said it was "a welcome milestone", but stressed it would be some time before the economy made a full recovery.
Compared with the previous three months, the US economy grew by 0.9%. In the same period, and on the same measure, the UK economy unexpectedly stayed in recession after it shrank by 0.4%. - BBC
