The Business News Headlines and More 2 November 2026

Now they are coming after our food. The latest Cyber-Attack targeted food freezers in a number of supermarkets in Europe. The goal? Drive up the cost of food. This is the Business News Headlines for Monday the 2nd day of November, thanks for being with us. In other news, revenue for Anthropic grew but…not enough. The news from its IPO tonight. Data scraping and Meta made the news. Money is being made available to thousands of homes in California…due to a methane leak. The closing of KFC and Taco Bell restaurants in Puerto Rico is a reality and why. We’ll check the numbers in The Wall Street Report and for the conversation you’ll meet Arnav Bhutani the founder and director of TractorGears.com a global business serving the industries of Agriculture and Construction. But, first the news.

Thanks for listening!
