    Meanwhile, the Commerce Department said that the U.S. economy grew at a solid 3.2 percent in the fourth quarter as consumer spending accelerated, according to the advance reading on gross domestic product. Analysts 4 had forecasted a growth of 3.5 percent. The rise was a touch below economists 5' expectations(期望,预期) for a 3.5 percent rate.
