Then, Erin talks to John Brynjolfsson, CIO of Armored Wolf, to further explore the recent news surrounding the ECB and gets his macro take on it. After the break, Erin is joined by Soraya Darabi and Maxine Bedat, co-founders of the fashion startup Zady, to discuss conscious consumerism.
And in The Big Deal, Erin sits down with Edward Harrison and Lindsay France to talk about Bitcoin, Verizon, and ISIS. Take a look!

Greece’s new €86 billion bailout plan got the green light. On Wednesday, the package won overwhelming approval from German lawmakers after a three hour debate. In total, 453 lawmakers voted in favor of the measures, 113 voted against, and 18 abstained. Many had predicted there would be surge in dissent by members of Chancellor Angela Merkel’s own party. It seems that the “revolt” against her leadership failed to materialize. Ameera David weighs in.
Then, Ameera is joined by Lars Christensen – founder and owner of Markets and Money Advisory and senior fellow at London's Adam Smith Institute. Lars tells us how the Euro has acted as a “monetary strangulation mechanism” and why he thinks the Euro is a “growth killing machine.”
After the break, Bianca Facchinei takes a look at the latest in the Ashley Madison hacking case. On Tuesday, a hacking group called the "Impact Team" released the personal information of 36 million people – including their full names and credit card information – who used the site.
Afterwards, Ameera and Erin Ade discuss how low oil prices have helped pushed up airline revenues. But it isn’t all blue sky's ahead in terms of labor agreements, regulators, and share prices.
And in The Big Deal, Ameera and Edward Harrison talk about Greece and the Federal Reserve.
Take a look!

As some nations have begun to reopen their economies, a surge in COVID-19 cases has followed suit. Plus, in the wake of the outbreak, markets have reacted positively with US equities in the green. As job losses continue to accelerate, the worst is yet to come and the consequences are going to be felt by the average American. While the US is no stranger to surging gun sales, the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing protests have driven up sales over the last months. This year, there has already been one massive surge of gun sales and the second one has begun, with a significant number of sales to first time buyers.
