    "The U.S. economy grew at a faster pace than expected in the first quarter and posted its best growth to start a year in four years.
    First-quarter GDP expanded by 3.2%, the Bureau of Economic Analysis said in its initial read of the economy for that period. Economists polled by Dow Jones expected the U.S. economy increased by 2.5% in the first quarter. It was the first time since 2015 that first-quarter GDP topped 3%."
