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.

Investec Henderson Crosthwaite has moved Flextech (775p) back to a buy from hold after the full-year results and confirmation of additional investment in new digital interactive services Henderson has raised its target price from 705p to 850p.

Stanley Leisure (276p) says Charterhouse, pointing out that prospects in both the provincial casino market and the London high-roller market remain bleak. On a prospective p/e multiple of 17.4 and a p/e premium of 19 per cent to the sector, the shares still look too high, adds Charterhouse.
