EASIEST TIME TO BE PRESIDENT EVER:

The rate of economic growth in developed countries doubled in the three months to September, figures from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development showed Monday, an indication that the global economy may be set for a modest pickup.

The third-quarter rebound was led by the U.S. and Japan, while the U.K. and Germany slowed. Among members of the Group of Seven largest developed economies, the U.S. fared best, despite some uncertainty ahead of the Nov. 8 presidential elections.
