Australia's economy slowed marginally in the third quarter.
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, gross domestic product rose 0.5 percent in the three months to September, from a month ago.
On a year-on-year basis, GDP grew over 3 percent.
Growth was largely driven by the mining and manufacturing sectors.
Just yesterday, the Reserve Bank of Australia cut rates by a quarter of a percentage point to 3 percent.
That's its lowest level since the financial crisis in 2009.
