Tokyo---Japan's economy grew a better-than-expected 0.6 percent in the first quarter, official data showed Wednesday, after limping out of recession in the previous three months.
The latest growth is bigger than a revised 0.3 percent expansion in the final quarter of 2014 and beat the market median forecast of a 0.4 percent on-quarter increase.
