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.

o Slimma, the fashion group, held at 59p, a year's low. Henry Cooke, Lumsden, the stockbroker, believes that the shares are worth buying up to 90p. First-half profits fell from pounds 535,000 to pounds 210,000 and year's figures will, it believes, show a drop from more than pounds 1m to pounds 550,000. Next year's outcome, however, should be a pounds 1m profit and its analyst, Peter Dzedzora, says that the shares' fall from 115p this year has been overdone.

o Trio Holdings, the money broker that takes in the Martin Bierbaum operation, is having a torrid time. Earlier this year it raised pounds 6.5m through a cash call at 25p. The shares, once more than 81p, fell 3p to 9p yesterday, with the market clearly growing increasingly perplexed about figures, due soon.
