Singapore’s Factories Power Growth to Fastest in Four Years

Gross domestic product last quarter grew 5.7% from the same period a year ago, according to an advance estimate Friday from the Ministry of Trade and Industry. That compares with a 6.3% median estimate in a Bloomberg survey and 4.3% the previous quarter.
