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.

r Pan Andean, a tiddler seeking oil and gas in Bolivia, is said to have lined up an impressive partner for its Ixiamas development. One name in the frame is the US oil group Murphy. The AIM-traded company has already linked with BHP, the Australian giant, for its other Bolivian venture, the Chapare block. A progress report, likely to be encouraging, is expected shortly on Chapare. The shares are 17.25p. They have touched 18.5p and been as low as 12.75p.

r Robert H Lowe, a packaging, printing and sportswear group rescued by David Sebire, is acquiring Majoca, a corrugated paper business, for pounds 2.2m in shares and a further payment of up to pounds 2m. It is Lowe's first significant deal since it was restructured last year. The shares rose 2p to 17p.
