U.K. growth slowing as Europe weakens
Excerpt:LONDON (CNNMoney) -- The U.K. economy may contract further in the fourth quarter, and growth will be subdued for the foreseeable future, as the eurozone crisis dampens demand for exports, the Bank of England said Wednesday. Gross domestic product growth of 1% in the third quarter pulled Britain out of recession, but that was exaggerated by one-off factors. "The (bank) attaches even less weight than in August to the possibility of a rapid pickup in growth," the central bank said in its quarterly inflation report. "GDP growth is more likely to be below than above its historical average rate over the entire forecast period." The bank also said near-term inflation would rise more than previously predicted, in part due to the introduction of higher university tuition fees and rising household energy bills. Last week, the BoE kept rates at 0.
