DETROIT (WWJ) - The U.S. economy continues to grow at its highest rate in a decade, according to economists at the University of Michigan.

Ehrlich, an associate director within the UM Department of Economics, say researchers expect the national economy will add 4.7 million jobs over the next two years.
