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.

Two new issues on Ofex got off to a flying debut. Key 2, a CD- Rom publisher, finished the day at 55.5p, up 35.5p on its opening price. The company publishes multimedia training CD-Roms for Mac and PC platforms. Zarara Oil & Gas, meanwhile, an independent oil and gas exploration company based in Jersey, ended the day up 4.5p at 24.5p.

Acorn Group, the computer company, is beginning to climb at last on the strength of its stake in Arm, a microchip company. Acorn added 5p to 143.5p after optimism about a US flotation of Arm, in which it has a 43 per cent shareholding. A successful float would do Acorn wonders, as its share price has recently been hovering around a two-year low.
