TOKYO (Reuters) – Japan’s economy grew an annualized 1.8% in July-September, much more than the initial estimate of a 0.2% expansion, revised data from the Cabinet Office showed Monday.

The revised figure for gross domestic product beat economists’ median forecast for a 0.7% rise in a Reuters poll.

On a quarter-on-quarter basis GDP expanded 0.4%, compared with a 0.1% growth in the initial reading and a median forecast of 0.2% growth.
