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.

THE ELECTRONICALLY traded Xetra DAX index closed up 1 per cent, lifted by strength in Deutsche Telekom shares and a firm start on Wall Street. The DAX ended up 1.05 per cent higher at 5,356.95 points but trade was quiet as investors awaited the outcome of a Federal Reserve meeting on US interest rates.

The bluechip DAX index was buoyed by Deutsche Telekom shares which rose 2.03 per cent to 40.30 euros on the first day of trade after shares were sold in its new offering.
