Australia set to extend two-decade growth run


SYDNEY: Australia is expected to notch a 22nd year of uninterrupted economic growth in 2013 with forecasters seemingly confident the country can surmount the peak of a mountainous mining boom with only a temporary bump in activity.

A Reuters poll of 29 analysts found Australia's A$1.5 trillion economy was expected to grow 2.5% this year, before picking up to 3% in 2014.
