Victoria has surpassed Tasmania to become Australia’s best-performing state as its economy topped the country for the first time since April 2020.

According to the latest quarterly State of the States report from Australia’s largest online stockbroking firm CommSec, Victoria ranked first among the states and territories for retail spending, which soared by 18.5 percent in the March quarter following the removal of COVID-19 lockdowns.
