Consumers lead US recovery

World Business Report

Available for over a year

Consumer spending picks up but the latest US growth figures have disappointed some. We take the pulse of shoppers in New York. Meanwhile with Europe's manufacturing in the doldrums - and factory output down across the eurozone yet again - we ask whether it's time for craft work to come to the rescue. And British wartime leader Winston Churchill appears on a banknote for the first time - we ask who you'd like to see on your banknotes and why.
