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.

Fund managers expect Labour to win

An overwhelming number of fund managers believe Labour will win the next general election. Ninety-five per cent of respondents to the latest Merrill Lynch-Gallup survey say the party will win the largest number of seats. But although they remain optimistic about prospects for UK equities three months and one year out, fund managers are not enthusiastic about increasing their exposure to the UK market. A mere 1 per cent balance want to raise UK equity holdings compared with 32 per cent ready to increase their investment in the Pacific Basin. Hong Kong is the most favoured.
