You'll Never Guess This: The Fastest Growing Economies Of 2013

Well, we could not guess any of the top three fastest growing economies for 2013. Each one was a surprise, so here is what we spotted: The fastest growing economy for 2013, with a whopping 18.1 percent growth in GDP, would be Mongolia, followed by Macau (yes, the same Macau) with a 13.5 percent growth rate. Libya will take the third spot, with a 12.2 percent growth rate (Source)

As the economist rightly points out, the only country with a significant GDP in the list is China. Every other economy mentioned in the list is basically too small in the international scheme of things.

Statspotting is a game now: the day's most striking numbers from the news, and how big they really are.
