LONDON - The Bank of England decided Thursday to inject another £25 billion into the economy to try to spur a recovery after surprising data showed the recession in Britain had dragged into the autumn.
Along with the stimulus, equal to more than $40 billion, the central bank also decided to leave the benchmark interest rate at 0.5 percent. Later on Thursday, the European Central Bank kept its main rate steady as well, at 1 percent.
