Market Report: Taking Stock
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.Celsis International, the hygiene kits group, fell 7.5p to 70.5p, lowest since 1994. Bear raider Simon Cawkwell, the so called Evil Knevil, has let it be known he has taken a short position in the shares. He says they are worth 40p.
But Celsis came out fighting. In November it claimed it was on track to make profits in its second half year which ends next month. Chairman Jack Rowell said: "We are doing nothing out of step in our drive towards the end of the financial period".
Tadpole Technology rose 7.5p to 22p. Stockbroker Colin Blackbourn has made a quick turn. On Monday it was announced he picked up 3.1 per cent, probably at around 10 pence.
DW Hankinson, former chief of housebuilder Fairbriar, sold his 8.83 per cent stake at the market price, 32p.
