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.There were ironies galore in the downturn of global markets. Not least was the one brought home on Tony Dye, the investment guru at Phillips & Drew Fund Management and the City's most famous bear.
Mr Dye moved heavily into cash in the wake of the Mexican peso crisis in the spring of 1995, only to suffer for two long years as the markets climbed and climbed.
His bearish stance is now far more mainstream. But it is a classic case of too little too late, and anyway PDFM's parent, the Union Bank of Switzerland, has, in effect, been taken over by Swiss Bank Corp.
