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.Ward Holdings, the housebuilder, was last night trying to get its own house in order after announcing that the company's family shareholders had terminated talks about selling their controlling stake in the companies.
Ward shares plummeted by almost a quarter to close at 53.5p after the company said no offer was sufficiently attractive to accept. Rumours of a rethink were doing the rounds last night.
Netica, the electronic publisher, which started trading on Ofex on Tuesday, is attracting a stream of buyers. It opened at 80p, but soared yesterday to 124.5p after 120,750 shares were traded.
