Latvian economy up 6.6% in the third quarter year on year

I think the gain is coming from a steep drop in the past, but I couldn't find an easy way to get this data from the Latvian Bank's website.

I think this commentary from a Latvian Bank economist sums it up though:

No need to read the whole article -- just read the sentences they bolded. Their outlook is not that positive.

Latvia just like Estonia will more likely be on the level of Zambia this year when the banks in Baltic tiger collapse. I wouldn't celebrate based on these false figures.
