Airing on Wednesday, July 22, 2015: We’re bouncing off a big day in tech stocks. Apple reported profits yesterday after the market close — Even though earnings were up, the company’s stock went down. We’ll talk more on how the company failed to meet investors’ expectations. And an emerging debate in the Trans Pacific talks … cheese. Who owns the intellectual and property rights to make certain cheeses and foods? Washington wants to allow Asian countries to reject European trademarks for certain foods, which would open the doors for American producers of those products. Plus, bidding wars have resumed in many real-estate markets, but not because of easy mortgage money. So few houses are on the market that buyers are pitted against each other.

More on that. And it’s the fifth anniversary of Dodd-Frank. We look at the biggest accomplishment of the law so far, and the biggest issue it’s not yet gotten to. And as you know we’ve been talking to people about the tools that they can’t live without while doing their job — their “Pro Tools.” Well, our sibling program Marketplace Tech is doing a series called Noise Makers. All this month they’re talking to musicians about a piece of must-have technology or gear that helps the performer or the composer make their art. We’ll talk about some of the Pro Tools he’s discovered while talking to professional noise makers.

Airing on Friday, July 17, 2015: The Senate passed an overhaul of the No Child Left Behind act Thursday.

Plus, General Electric has asked the U.S. government for permission to do business in Iran. We look at the company’s strategy for operating there ahead of GE’s earnings report out Friday. Puerto Rico missed a second bond payment as its finances worsened.

Plus, Goldman Sachs had issued a report saying that cheap oil, so far, has had a much more obvious negative impact on the economy than any positive impact on consumer spending. More on that. Plus, Irvine, California, repealed a living wage ordinance on city contracts, becoming one of the first cities in the U.S. to buck the trend of minimum and living wage increases. We examine what’s behind the change.

But yesterday, the IMF released a paper warning the bailout plan may not work without more debt relief for Greece from the eurozone. More on that. Plus, with the lifting of sanctions in Iran potentially on the way, we look at how long it could take for Iran to increase its oil production enough to affect global prices and show up in gas prices in the U.S. And with Emmy nominations set to come out Thursday, we ask the question: Does anyone still care about the Emmys?

Airing on Tuesday, July 14, 2015: After years of negotiations, Iran and six major world powers have reached a deal over the country’s nuclear program. The agreement aims to curb Iran’s production of nuclear weapons in exchange for the lifting of certain sanctions. This could mean a huge bump in Iran’s oil exports.
