 Well New South Wales has extended its lead as the nation's best performing economy, according to the latest concept state of the state report. Victoria has remained in second place. But the quarterly report shows the biggest change over the past quarter has been the improved performance of the ACT, which has jumped from 6 spots to equal third of the northern territory. Western Australia slid in the ranking to its current place 6, while Queensland is in 6ed place, and South Australia and Tasmania round out the bottom two places respectively.
