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.

Euro `safe haven'

THE EURO is seen as the latest "safe haven" by European fund managers who are worried by the prospect of deation and falling corporate profitablity in Asia and the US.

Of the 68 European fund managers interviewed in the August survey by Gallup for Merril Lynch, 74 per cent said they favour the euro over the next 12 months, with only 23 per cent picking the US dollar as their preferred currency, and a mere 2 per cent the yen.
