City File: No worries
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.DO NOT be too disturbed if T Cowie includes substantial write-offs on its stock of used cars when it reports next week. And consequently, do not expect any repetition of the 56 per cent bounce reported at half- way.
Nevertheless, according to Sandy Morris of NatWest Securities, pre-tax profits for the year could be up by a quarter at pounds 23m. The market certainly is not worried, with the shares near their all-time high at 194p.
This is not surprising given that Cowie is the classic beneficiary of reduced interest rates (every percentage point is worth pounds 1m) and steady recovery in the company car market.
