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.SHARES in Paris regained mid-afternoon losses to push the CAC40 index 46 better to 4,421.91, helped by a rally in bank shares and early gains on Wall Street.
Bank shares were encouraged by talk that the sector is under-valued but overall volume was low and the market remains unsettled by hints of high US interest rates, traders said. BNP rose 1.70 to 86 euros, SocGen and Paribas were also firmer. Retailers also rose, led by Promodes, but France Telecom fell 0.85 at 75.10 euros.
