Between October and December, the country's economy grew by 1.3%, almost double what economists had predicts and the biggest quarterly leap in two years. The growth was almost four times what the US had achieved in the same period. Underpinning the spurt was the continuing willingness of Australians to splash out on consumer goods, coupled with a hyperactive housing market boosted by government grants for new house building.
