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.THROGMORTON TRUST, an investment trust specialising in selected small companies, performed better than the small companies sector as a whole in the first six months of its 1992 financial year, writes Lisa Vaughan.
The net asset value of the trust increased by 7.5 per cent to 75.6p in the six months ending 31 May, compared with 70.3p a year earlier.
Net revenue from ordinary activities before tax declined to pounds 5m from pounds 6.2m. The interim dividend was maintained at 9p.
Throgmorton's board said: 'Since May the stock market as a whole has come back from the high levels seen in the weeks following the general election.
'But the trust's portfolio has continued to perform better than the indices for the small companies sector.'
