The Business News Headlines 26 May 2026

We're back from the Memorial Day Weekend and thank you for sticking with us. We hope you had an excellent holiday. We kick things off this evening with yet another look at the ever widening gap between what consumers are feeling and what is happening on Wall Street. In other news, Lyft and Uber drivers in Massachusetts form a union. PayPal is busy defending its turf…we’ll explain. The Supreme Court and Brian Flores made the news. Sticker shock faces World Cup fans in the U.S. And we have more news from the Supreme Court and this has to do with truck drivers and Florida. We’ll check the numbers in The Wall Street Report and that story that AI won’t take away jobs…well hold on because we’ve got the other side of the story.

Thanks for listening!
