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.THE BOVESPA index closed down 6.13 per cent on Friday as reports of huge outflows from the foreign exchange market unnerved investors already concerned about a surge in capital flight from emerging countries.
The index tumbled to a 26-month low, ending the week at 5,837 points. Shares had recovered from losses of more than 12 per cent earlier in the day, a fall which triggered a circuit breaker stoppage. Shares rose later on a slight rebound in US equities.
