The Federal Statistical Office said Thursday that gross domestic product contracted by 0.5 percent in the July-September period compared with the previous quarter.

The economy contracted by 0.4 percent in the second quarter, its first decline since late 2004.

A technical recession is defined as two consecutive quarters of negative growth.
