Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A 5 PER cent rise for shares in Vodafone AirTouch helped a weaker market to finish well above the day's lows yesterday.
At the end of a see-saw session the FTSE 100 was 22 points or 0.36 per cent lower at 6,169, after swinging in a range of more than 100 points. Vodafone, the market's second biggest stock, rose 60p to pounds 12.53, adding some 18 points to the FTSE as the market warmed to the prospects of a possible deal with Bell Atlantic.
