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.LEADING JAPANESE shares closed little changed yesterday after the rebound in the dollar eased concerns about the competitiveness of Japanese exporters.
The Nikkei 225 index closed down 7.51 points, or 0.6 per cent. Dealers attributed the mini-recovery to direct intervention by the Bank of Japan in the foreign exchange markets. The Bank of Japan bought dollars and sold yen in an attempt to curb the strength of the Japanese currency.
