Said to be inside a Printing House not far from pariss main airport. The suspects are holding a hostage. According to a french lawmaker theyve told the police that they want to die as martyrs. One reportedly traveled to yemen for al qaeda terrorist training. Meanwhile, there is now a report that five hostages, this by the way is a live shot going on right now, that have been taken inside a cosher supermarket in paris. No other details are available right now. But we will be sure to bring them for you as soon as those details come online. But as you can see right now, this is a live shot of what is going on with the second hostage situation at a supermarket in east paris. We are now less than a half an hour away from the december jobs report. According to one survey, they added 240,000 jobs last month, that is less than in november. But would mean almost 3 million jobs were created in 2014. Thats the most in 15 years. Onto our other top stories, the European Central bank to help jumpstart the economy, thats according to a person who attended the meeting of the governing counsel. Policy makers may decide to implement kwan tay tive easing after meeting. On capitol hill, they expected to pass a bill approving the trorlinge Keystone Pipeline. Theyve already done that nine times in the last three and a half years. This time the house is expected to be joined by the senate which may vote next week. Still president obama is promising to veto the bill and there arent enough votes to override that in the senate. Taking started a fight to the company should be broken up to unlock shareholder value. Now back to the latest on that hostage situation developing in paris. As i mention now there are five hostages that have been taken. Bloomberg International Correspondent is at the scene of wednesday attack at the magazine site. Hahn, what do we know so far about these parallel incidents going on . Well, betty, they may be more than parallel, they may as well be related the shooter in yesterdays morning attack in is south of france left a police woman dead is believed to be the same shooter who has those five hostages. Just a few kilometers away from here. Thats just to the east of paris. He apparently, according to local reports, has a relationship with the two brothers, the two brothers that are holed up northeast of paris. What we know now is the president has dispatched his interior minister to the site and they are going to try to monitor the monitor the situation there. There are some reports from the second situation in the northeast, northeast of paris. The go brothers there want to die as martyrs and they apparently have one hostage. So we have two hostage situations. We have some bluster from the french government that at least for the two brothers those in the northeast, that they have them in a mouse trap. But not a similar level of confidence of the second shooter who may have these five hostages in a kosher delhi, if not a few kilometers from where we stand here where this all began some 48 hours ago. Betty. And hans, now there are also reports that shooting yesterday of the police woman may also be linked to the brothers. Yeah so the link is between the shooter, the shooter from who shot the police woman in the south of paris yesterday morning and the two brothers. The question then becomes are they part of a larger cell. If theres a nexus between them, what sort of connection and was it operational, was it merely social. If it was operational we could be looking at a potential cell. We do know the older brother, he did receive training in yemen from an al qaeda affiliate where he received some light arms training and some fire practice training which may explain betty just the precision, the spread with which some of the bullets landed outside right behind me. Betty . All right, just quickly you mentioned the president and the statement hes been making. Hes going to be holding a meeting as well this sunday. Yeah, so what we have sunday is, well there are two events. One we have all the political leaders in france with the exception of the leader of the far right party, they will have a march here in paris. All tin tear your ministers from across europe as well as tern general from the United States will be here in paris to talk about broader security measures that they can implement that they can potentially hormonize to prevent these sorts of attacks. Hans, thank you so much. There live in paris at the site of the massacre. I want to get now to phil mattingly, who is at the white house. No ok. Phil mattingly in tennessee. Give me the reaction so far weve heard of course the president and the u. S. Offered every type of assistance that they can give to france. What else is the president going to do . What is the u. S. Intelligence agency here going to do with the information thats unfolding in paris . Well, betty obviously u. S. Officials closely monitoring whats happening this morning. Havent heard anything from the president specifically today but white house officials also monitoring the situation, their National Security team very closely. Betty i think whats most interesting, and hans eluded to this a little bit, but u. S. Intelligence officials have made very clear that these two brothers, the two main suspects here were well known. They were on u. S. No fly lists, they were on u. S. Known terrorist list. I think the main concern youre hearing is the french Intelligence Community was also aware of this. Even though these two brothers were well known they were still able to pull this off. I think one of the immediate concerns right now is how is that possible. I think broader, something u. S. Officials have been concerned about, the white house included is is this part of some broader network, part of some broader plot. There hasnt been a lot of evidence leading anybody to draw that conclusion yet. I think when you see things that are happening, this is the type of thing that sets off alarm bells. Thats what the officials will be focused on again, trying to get the bigger picture. They can add a lot of heft when it comes to the intelligence connection. Intelligence trying to make the full picture become clear and that will be their primary focus. Congressional reaction has been what so for phil . Obviously very supportive with france, of for instance, i think willingness to do and offer the same type of support the president will. Anything the u. S. Can do to help, i think the interesting thing betty is its a new congress, a lot of stuff going on right now, when this becomes a sole focus, if it becomes a sole focus whats the reaction going to be. The general reaction is the pendulum will swing hard from a lot of law make eshes into moving closer towards a more secure state. What can we do on the intelligence side, what can we do on homeland security. How that debate plays out there be interesting to watch. As of now betty the unified support across the board with the president s offer to do whatever the u. S. Can to help the french. All right phil, thank you so much. Phil mattingly our White House Correspondent in knoxville, tennessee. Traveling with the president. Back to our other top story. The all important jobs figure, less than 30 minutes away, well get the final piece of data on 2014. The employment picture shapedup to be pretty good in 2014. We gained something almost to the tune of three million jobs in total since the recession. Joining us now to discuss more about the jobs report is our Bloomberg Economist josh wright and also bloomberg stocks editor mike reagan. Josh, the biggest thing youll be watching for this jobs report is what . The number one thing is what will happen to the actual pace of job creation. 2014 was a great year on a 12 month moving average basis. This is the highest rate of job growth weve seen since 2006. The question is do we have an upswing at the end of the year, we had that upsurge to over 3 million jobs in november or are we going to go back to trend. And the feeling is . The expected tations is were going back to that trend. If we turn up maybe the economy will overheat domestically. Mike, we heard so many naysayers on this rally that we saw in 2014, but if you look at the jobs picture it seems to make perfect sense that we would have rallied. Josh said its been a strong year, really not a ton of huge surprises in the jobs numbers. I looked at the last six reports and the market reactions, it hasnt been a revolving reaction to any of the reports. The biggest move after jobs report was about 1 . But five of the last six, the market has ended the day higher even though it missed estimates on three of those reports. So the market is pretty comfortable with the pace of jobs growth, its been strong. I wouldnt necessarily expect a lot of volatility from this report today. That of course anything can happen with the way this market is swinging. If there was a big surprise. What about the oil price though . We keep hearing net is going to be a positive for the economy, consumers will spend even more. But i imagine though that this is going to result possibly in these job losses, in the energy sector. Could that then impact stock markets . Absolutely. Its, the big question is obviously how long is oil going to stay this low, you know. If you look at any corporate budget and not just energy companies, all the Industrial Companies that cater to the fracking boom in the country, theres a big question mark on what the price of oil will be. Looking at earnings estimates they come down pretty dramatically. The s p 500 are expected to increase only by 2. 4 in the fourth quarter. Thats down from estimates of about 10 before oil peaked in june. Its not uncommon, but that is a pretty noticeable drop down. A big 19 drop in Energy Company earnings. But not necessarily an increase in so its not going to be at least in this quarter, there might be a late effect. Definitely something to watch. The jobless claims numbers we havent seen yet the jobs from the oil price decline. In fact jobless claims dipped in a state like texas that is so dependent on oil. Exactly. What we saw over the last month is jobless claims did drift up a little bit but theyre still below that key psychological level of 3,000 a week. Thats all good news but holding steady. One of the things, part of why the markets may have been responding in a relatively none volatile way is 2014. The job growth has been so steady. We have one or two misses but its been a study of recovery and with the fed communicating that the policy will be linked to that, i think thats why the if the numbers stay in line. It sounds like well stay on this 250 27 po . It was 240 and that is exact the expectation for today. All right josh thank you very much. Stay with us, were going to get the december jobs, in a moment well talk to a c. E. O. Whos adding hundreds of jobs where hes located. Plus were going to keep bringing you the latest from france. As we wait the governments all important job report, the last one of 2014, i want to highlight one company that is actually hiring. The company that went public with bostons biggest job creator in 2013 could retain that title after this year as well. Helped by a hefty tax break way fair plans to bring another few00 new jobs into the city in 2016. Great to have you back on the program. In fact we have a tally of the hiring that youve done over the last several years. What would you say is the single biggest factor, other than the fact that youre growing like gang busters here in this country. Whats helped you the most in being able to hire . Well you know obviously were hiring because we are grewing so quickly. In terms of what helped us hire, the truth is a lot of the jobs were looking for, whether it be engineers or data scientists or all these stem type jobs, or it could be marketers and more chents but who have to have deep analytical skills. One of the things that helps us is being based in boston when you think about the talent pool thats available. Because youve got the universities, young people is that what it is . Exactly. The right of industries that are there and the educational institutions. All the young folks coming out of school with these types of skill or who have the an attitude and frankly we can help them train up. We added a thousand people last year so weve been growing at a good pace and having access to talent is really key. Are you paying more or less nrt same kind of talent . The kind of talent were looking for is definitely in very high demand. We do find its a competitive world, we end up paying a fair amount, the salaries do keep going up. But again those skills are so key thats how we move the business forward and thats how we were able to grow so quickly last year. Our direct Retail Business grew 57 . So that type of growth is coming out of all the things were working on. You mention that you are paying a fair amount and those rates do continue to go up. So whats going into the wage discussion with some of your highest demand type of employees . Yeah, so, weve kind of figured out what we think the appropriate rates are in the market. We keep a very close eye on whats going on. So that allows us to have really good parity. We have a very strong culture, so its sort of depending on what kind of skills you have, we bring you in at certain levels. Obviously you can rise at whatever pace of skill, development and productivity you have. Were really encouraging folks to do as much as they can and get rewarded for that. I think the truth is these skills are just i think very key to the future. So i think these are the types of folk every companys looking for. I think that thats what drives the salary. Like the belle of the ball if youre a developer or coder if you know anything else, youre a great marketer, you are certainly in demand. Now, we had you on, i remember when you i. P. O. Eed back in october. The markets were extremely volatile afterwards. Your stock price has gone down since the i. P. O. So tell me how are you surviving that . One of the things we did, our company is 12 years old and we still view it as the early days. So even though we have over a billion dollars in sales on a trailing 12 month basis we still think its very much the early days. You can see our growth rate tied to that. So everyone in the Company Knows look stock price cans move up or down in very volatile ways. And weve really preached the warn buffet quote, in the short run, stock markets of the voting machine, in the long run its a weighing machine. Weve been successful because weve always taken the long view and a customer oriented view. Were going to keep growing, keep being increasingly successful. I really have no doubt overtime the stock price reflects how successful or not successful you are. And i think were going to be very successful. Boston is glad to see way fair. I want to point out mark zuckerberg, who had started facebook in boston, took his company out west. And ever since then people in boston have said can we get out of the curse of zuckerberg. Do you feel that finally you have helped in that . Yeah, i think boston doesnt get kind of a fair regard for all the Successful Companies that are in boston. Were obviously in boston. Trip advisor 10 billion market cap, great consumer net company in boston. Theres a lot of Great Companies but clearly silicone valley huge center for internet. I think if you start ranking places, im pretty sure you would find boston very high on the list. We love being in boston, the talent is incredible. We think its a great city in which to build a business. Thank you so much. The way fair co founder and c. E. O. Well be back in two minutes. Ah, got it.

More breaking news coming out from the hostage situation in paris. In fact there are two now developing. There is one in northeast paris, and now there is a second one where there are now reports of at least two death. Caroline tell me the situation and these reports of now two deaths of the hostages . Yes, these reports have not been 100 confirmed we the authorities, but there is definitely a second hostage situation taking place which is east of paris. It theres been some reports that this gunman is the same as the one who shot dead this police woman yesterday. He has been linked to the brothers who are also taking hostages northeast of paris near the airport, where i am right now. So of course all the Police Forces have been at that site trying to surround the small Publishing House where the two brothers are at the moment. The police force are moving to the second hostage site. Its happening in a small Kosher Grocery store and now between five and six people and the gunman is an african type man who is carrying and who is believed to be the same gunman as the one yesterday. Caroline, how are Security Forces securing down the area . I mean what exactly is going on . Has trons par tationhalted . I understand reports of the School Children have been told to stay in their classrooms and those who are in their homes are obviously told to stay inside. Thats correct. So where i am so the Industrial Zone where the two brothers are is on the outskirt of this town. We have 8,000 inhabitants. And we see the whole site is secure the journalists have been taken about two kilometers down the road, and down a bit south of the site is a Residential Zone where you have four primary schools, a high school, and the secondary school. Some of the schools have started taken them out of the site. I actually have a Family Member who is a teacher in one of the schools which is the closest to the site. She told me that theyre confined inside. They are keeping the children obviously away from the windows. The children are lying on the floor in the hallway. Theyre trying to ask them to not panic, but of course parents of these kids are very panicked parents, have been coming here asking if me had more information because most of theme are still contained in the schools. A terrifying situation for them. Caroline, thank you so much. Lets get back to what is going on here in tust. We are a few moments away from the jobs r
