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.

Watch Cambridge Mineral Resources, seeking gemstones in Ireland as well as in Spain and Sweden. CMR is known to have found evidence of diamonds in one of its Irish exploration areas. But it is the possibility of corporate action which is intriguing. There is talk of a deal which could transform the company. With its shares at 16.5p CMR is valued at pounds 3.8m.

Premier Asset Management shaded 0.5p to 15.25p. Chairman Lord Stevens, head of United News & Media, has lifted his stake to 6.6 per cent, buying 1.5 million shares at 14p. Presumably the shares were part of the block sold by two former directors. PAM has raised pounds 1.4m by selling its interest in Dares Estates, up 1.5p to 18.5p, to the ex-directors.
