news is that the rate of unemployment in the u. s. has reached a fifty year low. it's down to only three point 5% a further drop on three point 7% in august however this has been offset by a weak job growth in september the u. s. added a hundred and fifty six thousand jobs. hello predictions of a hundred and forty five thousand average wage growth also fell in. the disappointing figures come off to shop plunging manufacturing. in september and the slowdown in the servrvices industry. let's see how the markets are reacting to that. in europe stockcks closed higher on the news of the us is jobless rate hitting that fifty year low too. london's footsie closed over 1% with the cat go home to not far behind at zero point nine one percent. frankfurt t stocks rose by three quarters of a percent. us markets opened on a positive note as well in earlier trading with the dow jones s. andnd p. five hundred and nasdaq all climbing over the course of stays trading. almostt one and a half percent. this jump cuts

into yesterday's knife attack at the police headquarters here in paris. i yes absolutely the city and its police force very much still reeling from the events of yesterday. i'm mrs joined offices this morning for a minute's silence. out the perfect tool which is very much at the very heart of paris. on the eve the less it's a which is of course also whether noted on cathedral sets. i'm real sense of shock right now amongst at police offffices. i m the investigation though as with the morning is really a new just getting underway and- that has been a key change today in that the anti terror unit france's national anti terror unit. is that she taken over this investigation yesterday. authorities want rooting out terrorism but they did seem to think that the most likely line of enquiring was going to be the fact that i was supposed to be some sort of a dispute between thehe man who carried out the stabbings. and his supervisor because of course remember the forty five year old ataca worked within. this paris police h. q. i am

now they the investigation of the phase one pasta the anti terror unit. a very different totone being. registered across the country radio on this one that has been a loss of angle on line. i with people believing that and both the authorities and the media were trying to hide a terror link here. basically the authorities haven't confirmed it until. today or at least confirm suspicion of it. i'm live figueroa those very much fueling people's concerns when it published this article earlier today saying that a neighbor. of the man had had him shouting out a lot well in the early hours of this morning or- any household the morning of the attack between three and four am. and a lot of people. at feeling that sure. this meant it have to be a terrorist act. some they're pointing out

that has been so much false information and take on this story this gentleman saying. some people keep saying that this man was mute others are saying he was chanting allah akbar and the moral of the story he says it's just a wait for the in investigations take its course because we know he is partially deaf but exactly some and there's so many yeah i lost it's evil las vegas information on just after death needs and of course if that were true he organization. anyway it is now being investigated as a terror attack and they're awesome really chilling revelations in this also from the place here as to why the change has happened and you do have to wonder why no red flags was seen by those who worked alongside this man inside the police headquarters. and when they discovered is that he had actually how to report made against him off to the sharia to attack which of course is january twenty fifteens that's awfully long time ago when potentially if someone was raising questions about this gentleman other details he bought the three thirty three centimeters at ceramic knife on the very morning off the attack. then sent a message to his wife this

is the world according to a source close to the investigation sent a message to his wife telling her what he had done she then replied saying only gold will judge you and so you can see that if that is true then that is why the investigation has timed in this way. i'm one of the points on this investigation many wondering how he was able to go unnoticed unremarked upon at marrion has spoken to a senior police officer he says this whether this was marked as a radical terrorism the question would be the same the intelligence service. failed to anticipate it's a package because he was working in the intelligence division whwhich is of the head scrcratcher sears anyways sting in paris next a statue has been unveiled that was meant to be a tribute for victims of terror but not everyone is happy. no absolutely. jeff koons at finally got to unveil his. okay

if she lives in paris today it's been a long time coming it always didn't happen. because there's been controversy about it from the very start. it was unveiled outside the pitti palace a which is an art museum close to the show on the say. and as you say it was intended to pay homage to recent victims of terror attacks here in front. of the bus there is a lot of controversy and has been for quite some time at last year. a number of politicians pass analyses at got involved right racial attitudes live across from the french newspaper. i'm saying that this gift was opportunistic i'm cynical by jeff koons. at the reason why caddo o. gift as an inverted commas in the headline. is because it's any the concept at the sculpture that was gifted. at not the actual scope to itself and the cost for that. raised to three point five million euros which was raised by french and american diana's i'm the office talked it up with a million himself. now one of the victims groups a life of paris which represents many of those who died have relatives who died. and in the november thirteenth terror attacks in twenty fifteen. at and they say that

they have so little money to help the real victims of terra. and this money could have gone to much better use because those donations are tax deductible so effectively. it's taking money from the state and they feel really deeply that this sculpture should not have been taking money out of the public passed. to need them i am a thank youou very much for that i'm a james that with media watch we gonna take a quick. break more news coming up sta
