Figures released by the US government show the economy grew at an annual rate of two percent in the third quarter. That's only tiny fraction more than most analysts1 had forecast, but much better than the 1.3 percent growth in the second quarter. Consumer spending and home sales contribute most to the third quarter growth.
The Spanish unemployment rate has hit a record high of 25 percent, as the country continues to struggle through a long
recession2. Spain is under pressure to ask for more help with its debts after receiving a 100-billion-dollar bailout for its troubled banks this year. The country's jobless rate is one of the highest in Europe, second only to Greece.

crisis3 and it's
currently4 waiting for a bailout from the EU.
Now time for the markets.
