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.SCOTT MCNEALLY, chairman and chief executive of Sun Microsystems, warned that the computer maker faced "heartbreak hill" over the next few months as the year 2000 looms and Asian markets struggle.
The remarks, which followed last week's profits warning from Compaq, rattled nerves on Wall Street. The Dow Jones index fell 14.89 points to 1,0447.83. Sun fell $4 3/8 to $56, with other computer stocks falling in sympathy.
