Of people would agree, especially people who use an airport like laguardia. What can be done about that, because clearly, laguardias not the only airport in this country that has a problem. How much is it going to cost, how are we going to pay for it, when does it happen. Lot of questions well talk about with americas airports and their infrastructure. Tyler and sue, curling. Curlings about to take the world by storm and cnbc, its our bastion. Tyler and sue wont show us how to play curling, if thats how you say that. They will show us how unbelievably difficult it is. Well get to that coming up a little later. Im bill griffith. Tyler is out today. Sues at the new york stock exchange. One of the reasons i just got here is all the ice thats down there on broadway. The bulls are making a big comeback today, about 105 points to the plus side, although its been a down year so far. We are up right now. Dominic chu is here with me because we have the s p higher, we have the nasdaq higher. It looks like a pretty solid day. Well see whether we can maintain it. So interesting because it sounds like such a market cliche, buy the dip. All the traders i have spoken to said its always been a buy the dip market, ever since the depth of the final crisis. Its one where even with a bad jobs number you can say the dow already fell by 326 points back on monday. We have slowly ground back up higher. The interesting point here is the other color i get from a lot of traders down here, you remember that Johnny Mercer song, accentuate the positive . Thats what this market is like. Traders saying its very much about the idea that even bad numbers, you dont find as much selling as there used to be. There was a time in this market when bad days were accentuated by high selloff volume. You dont get that anymore. Frank sinatra next time . I will try. Thanks, dom. See you later. Courtney . A good day for Online Travel site expedia, hitting a record high a day after posting better than expected quarterly profits. Other Online Travel agencies rose in sympathy, no surprise. Look at that. Up more than 12 . Sue, back to you. Thank you very much. Well, we asked at the top of the show, now we hope to get an answer from steve liesman, what is to blame for the second weak jobs number in a row . Is it the weather . Is it the economy . Perhaps a combination of both . What are you finding out . Weather or not is the question. Its simply hard to find weather affecting this number today. The 113,000 jobs created falling 72,000 short of the expectation, and 82,000 below the number of jobs we have been creating on average for the prior three months. Worse, its the second disappointing month in a row. One month is not a trend. Neither may be two. But you have to begin to wonder. Its hard to find the weather affecting this number. There was no decline in construction, a place you might expect to see it, or in other weathersensitive industries, for example, wholesale trade. Second, you had weakness in unrelated sectors Like Health Care and especially government. We will show that more starkly in just a moment here. Third, there were normal weather effects seen in the Household Survey, not really well above average when it comes to people who, for example, were coming to work parttime. Even the president s top Economic Advisor did not blame the disappointing data on mother nature. Weather could have an effect on our economy. The drought in california is certainly having a serious effect on their economy. So you will see it showing up in some of the economic data. I dont think it was a particularly big part of the story in the jobs numbers this month. Heres the construction number, 48,000. Manufacturing up 21,000. That manufacturing number, one of the strong points of the survey here. Temporary help kind of leads the way sometimes, not leading a whole lot of way here for next month. Retail down 13,000. Education and health, two months of weakness right there. And government, a surprise 29,000. I can tell you that half of that was local and State Government education workers. On the plus side, the Household Survey was stronger, earnings were decent and many measures of unemployment fell, including that broad measure which takes into account underemployment, at 12. 7 , its at the lowest level since 08. The street and the nation want jobs and this report didnt give it to them. Its hard to say that at least in january, it was the weather. On that question, not is the answer. We take that but we are going to talk more about it because we found somebody who does think the weather had an impact on that. So did the january weakness come from the economy or the weather . Jack ablon and robert pablick. Jack, you feel the weather did have an impact. Do you feel job growth would have been stronger if we hadnt had the lousy weather in december and january . Speaking from the epicenter of the polar vortex, i can tell you it had an impact on our economy. At least locally. In fact, i found that babbitt, minnesota recorded a temperature that was lower than what was recorded on mars. It kept people inside. Now, whether or not it impacted the jobs number, i dont know. I assume if that number is seasonally adjusted which i think it is, you know, januarys always cold. So we dont expect much construction work to begin with, and so being 30 above or 30 below probably isnt going to impact that number much. But it did Impact Services and i think as companies are closed, encouraging people to stay home, thousands of flights canceled, i do think its an impact. I think as things warm up, i think the economy will heat up as well. Didnt help the economy on mars, either. Robert, what do you think . You think it is just kind of an anemic economy right now, right . I do. Were in a slow growth recovery phase and i think the weather may have had a small impact. Obviously when you have the highways shut down in atlanta, people cant get to work, cant do any hiring. There is some issues with the snow, obviously thats going to create a problem for people to get to work, to do some hiring. But you know, we would have seen the numbers really play out in construction. We didnt see that. So i think its really a reflection that were in a slow growth recovery. Businesses are not confident enough to do the hiring that they need. I think it has a lot of impact, indication that the money is sitting overseas, offshore, and has to come back to the united states. Then we will really see some hiring. Lets look at Something Else thats affecting this market right now. Stay there, guys. We want to get your reaction to some news about outflows of Exchange Traded funds. Seema mody has that. Huge outflows from emerging markets etfs and mutual funds last week and here is the story. The data at least. Emerging market equity funds have seen outflows of 18. 6 billion which is now higher than the 15. 6 billion that left emerging market funds in all of 2013. That data according to epfr. Recent volatility in emerging market currencies as well as concerns over china slowing down resulted in investors pulling out of these markets. Some of that activity was also a reaction to the potential rise in u. S. Interest rates, making u. S. Yields relatively more attractive. Lippor fund points out the index had outflows of 2. 2 billion this week which is slightly less than last week but nonetheless, a significant move. Three of the biggest stocks held in this etf include samsung, taiwan semiconductors, and tencent holdings. The question now is how much more pain will emerging markets see . Josh brown says this is just the start of what will be a larger exodus out of emerging markets, especially if the fed continues to taper. Bill . Jack, do you want to be entering emerging markets as people are fleeing, play contrarian . Emerging markets have been suffering for awhile now. They have. And you know, its one of those cheap and continuing to get cheaper. I do think eventually that ship will right itself but i also suspect that its going to be a longer term hold. For those investors looking to make money 12 to 18 months, i think i understand the move out of emerging into more of a developed world. I get it and i do think that international develop, for example, trading at roughly 15 to 20 discount to the s p 500 is probably the place to be right now for the next 12 to 18 months. What about that, bob . What about the basically the emerging market versus those that are a little bit more developed as jack just basically told us . Would you go to the more developed, maybe not as developed as the u. S. , but those that are on better track, perhaps . Thats a good way to explain exactly what were doing. We have an actively managed Asset Allocation to the emerging markets. You cant be a passive investor in this arena. There has been a lot of interest, people have taken a lot of money out of it and because they have been passive investors, they have been burned. If youre actively managing it in the right areas of the emerging market, you are going to do okay. Good to see you both. Have a good weekend. To Vice President joe biden calling laguardia a third world airport. Okay. Probably no real argument there. But surely that complaint can be aimed at other airports cross the country. So what has to happen to fix that . Plus, julia borsten on ceos who maybe say a little too much.

Are investors sick of Tim Armstrong at aol . Some employees may be. The stock is down today while most of the market is up. As a matter of fact, its down almost 2. 75 . Yesterday, he made some very controversial comments regarding obamacare and how the company is paying for extra expenses brought on by troubled pregnancies. Julia is live in l. A. Tim armstrong is not the only ceo who sometimes says too much but the market is interpreting as what he said was over the line. Reporter thats right, sue. Tim armstrong explained in a memo to his employees quote, we want to be open and transparent about choices we make and why we are making them. This isnt the first time that Tim Armstrong has made headlines for potentially outspoken comments. In august, he fired a pactch employee on an internal conference call. Hes hardly the only one to spark controversy. A few weeks ago, netflix ceo took a shot at time warner joking that if the ceo of hbo doesnt mind pass word sharing, he shouldnt mind hastings sharing his password which is netflix and an expletive which signs with witch. Hastings surprised wall street at the end of the companys Third Quarter when he warned investors that the stock leading the nasdaq and s p 500 was worrying, sending the stock falling. Netflix rival time warner ceo back in 2010 called netflix as fl threatening as the albanian army. Teslas ceo caught analysts by surprise this past november telling investors that tesla shares are overvalued. An outspoken ceo can raise eyebrows for being political. In 2012, steve wynn went on what some called an epic antiobama rant, both in an interview on cnbc and on the companys earnings call. He said he will be quote, damned if i want to have obama lecture me about Small Business and jobs. Ceos of course want to be memorable but they are often walking a very fine line. Bill . Walked down memory lane with some of the great gaffes there. Another public figure who does not hide what hes thinking, of course, our Vice President , joe biden. Yesterday, he slammed one of americas busiest airports during a speech he gave about improving americas infrastructure. Listen. If i blindfolded someone and took him at 2 00 in the morning into the airport in hong kong and said where do you think you are, this must be america, its a modern airport. If i took him blindfolded and took him to the Laguardia Airport in new york, he must think id be in some third world country. Im not joking. No, he was not. How bad are our airports . What must be done, whats it going to cost, whos going to pay. Alex washburn is new york citys former urban design chief, a professor at Stevens Institute of technology here in new jersey, meaning you dont have to cross a bridge to get here. Its about bridges and highways and the electric grid. Theres an infrastructure problem in this country, isnt there . There certainly is an infrastructure problem. Its an absolute waste of our productivity and our ability to achieve more than we are. Why is that . Its not sexy for a politician to want to devote more funds to reBuilding Infrastructure . You dont get as much of a pop at the ballot box, or what . Its not just funds. Its a mixture of politics, finance and design. You got to bring all those three into alignment. Thats very hard for a politician to do because you can score points for stopping something and this is a tradition weve had in this country, oh, basically ever since we finished our highways. The famous bridge to nowhere they stopped funding a few years ago. But all these are part of a system. You have to have an attitude that every generation makes the system better. Any time one generation drops the ball, we get a state of entropy. We have been in that state of entropy. It only gets more expensive the longer you wait. Far more expensive. In the long run, dangerous in the short run. Is there an answer . How much would it cost . Where do we start . What needs the most work . The American Society of Civil Engineers has the report card they put out on americas infrastructure, talks about 3. 5 trillion almost of work to be done. Thats a complete menu. I want to change an attitude. I want politicians to realize they have a responsibility to the next generation. To do things that are maybe difficult for them politically but to go out on a limb and say we need more and better infrastructure and we are going to pay for it. Were not going to avoid the bill. I got a way they can angle it. It creates jobs. It does create jobs. It does create jobs. It is, though, you know, government is not the great job creator in this country, nor should it be. I think back to the 1930s, when Franklin Roosevelt used that strategy to create jobs during the great depression. You had the wpa where they were Building Infrastructure at that time. Is there some way we might think about a strategy at this time . The way we think about strategy at this time is not just government, but also private sector. You know what my best example, the biggest success in that has been the last decade, its been under mayor bloomberg back in new york city, the high line and west chelsea neighborhood. Lets not talking about how pretty it is. Im talking about how the government spent 100 million to change that railroad into a park. That sparked a transformation of a neighborhood with 3 billion private and counting. Its leverage. Leverage. It is a great place to visit if youre coming to new york city any time soon. Its become a great tourist location. Alex washburn, thanks very much. Sue . Youre looking at live pictures from istanbul, turkey. The situation is this. There is a pegasus plane and there was an attempted hijack g iby a ukrainian citizen that wanted to take that plane to sochi, russia. He claimed to have a bomb, he demanded that the flight be diverted. At this point, we believe there are about 100 passengers on board. What happened was the captain communicated to the tower that there was a situation on board and that the passenger is claiming to have a bomb. We dont know if that is the case. We dont know whether or not basically the plane was about to take off or not. But the passenger demanded to be taken to sochi, russia. Nbc news believes there is about 100 passengers on board. It is a pegasus airline. The airline confirmed that. Michelle carusocabrera is in sochi, russia and you know, what can you tell us from your standpoint on the ground . This is one of the situations that officials really feared, but apparently have really tried to prepare for as well. Reporter sure. Its one reason why so much has been spent on security. 3 billion, according to the russians. They announced that in a press conference just the other day. 25,000 police, 30,000 soldiers, 8,000 interior ministry troops, 5,000 surveillance cameras. First time ever they are using surveillance drones. This is all because of concerns about whether or not there will be some kind of terrorist attack at this olympics because remember, these olympics were and are openly threatened by islamic rebels to the south of here who said they wanted to create some kind of surprise for the olympics. They definitely wanted to target the event. We have seen large events targeted recently. Everyone remembers the marathon bombing in boston as well. So certainly the situation in istanbul, you outlined what is going on there, ongoing situation with someone on that plane who attempted to divert it to sochi, russia. Instead of to istanbul. We are waiting to see how that unfolds. Its exactly why there is so much security here. Absolutely. We have some more news from nbc in istanbul. According to the turkish undersecretary of transportation, there are now 110 passengers on that plane. There was a ukrainian person sitting in seat 2f who said he had a bomb on him. He demanded that the flight be diverted to sochi. The crew said yes, we are directing the flight to sochi. Then the pilots, according to the turkey undersecretary of transportation, turned off the inflight monitors and as you probably know on some flights, you can chart your route on those monitors. They turned those off. The pilots turned those off and they told that passenger they were flying to sochi but they diverted to istanbul. Once it was in turkish air space, they were escorted by the turkish f16s and now the plane is at the istanbul airport on the asian side in a secure area. But everyone is still inside that plane. We are going to continue to work this story. We will take a quick break. Thats a live picture in istanbul.

Athena health continues to rise as the day progresses, reporting better than expected Fourth Quarter earnings revenue earnings and revenue. The company is saying its network of physicians expanded by 28 . You can see the chart there, up almost 26 on the day. The stock up over 100 on the past year and on three straight quarters of pretty strong results. Sue, back to you. The nasdaq is up big today but on pace for its Third Straight weekly loss. Down about 2. 5 in that time. Sheila dharmarajan is following the big movers there and it has been one heck of a volatile week. Yeah, but what a way to end on this friday, right . The nasdaq completely outperforming. In fact, the nasdaq 100 and the 100 composite well above that 1 mark. It really has to do with the onetwo punch today. The first part of course being apple and the big buyback, that stock buyback having a Huge Positive impact but also, earnings. Very positive earnings influencing the nasdaq to the upside. Take a look at activision, one of the biggest winners today on a percentage basis. The company said profits were better than expected and also subscribers for its war craft game were turning around. Online travel, another big bright spot after expedias big earnings. I want to mention biotech as well because again, a big outperformer in the overall index, up about 3. 5 just today. Biogens m. S. Drug said to be tracking better than expected, one of the reasons we are seeing such a big advance today. Bill . If youre just joining us its been all about jobs today. Another weak report for january. The economy added just 113,000 jobs last month, below the 189,000 that economists had been expecting. But more people did begin looking for work in january. Some of the jobless were hired in that time. That helped cut the Unemployment Rate to a fiveyear low of 6. 6 , the lowest we have seen since october of 2008. We do continue to ask the question, where are the jobs. Many companies are asking where are the workers. They are trying to find people for jobs they say are difficult to fill. Mary thompson is in chicago at friedman seating, where that company is tapping into local talent from a nearby high school and a job retraining program to find the skilled workers that it needs. Mary . Reporter hey, bill, you know, friedman seating has been owned by the friedman family for four generations but 2014 is expected to be its best year ever. This follows a decade of annual double digit growth that was fueled by soaring demand for its seats that are used in buses and delivery trucks. Hiring soared, too. The companys president Craig Friedman increasing payrolls by 20 last year but at a cost. You know, were not only competing with the small manufacturers. Were competing with the multinational corporations that are here in chicago as well. Reporter friedman is speaking of skilled workers like welders and machinists who operate computerguided equipment. Most schools dont offer this training so he hires from chicagos jane adams Resource Corporation or jarc, a nonprofit training displaced adults with skills needed by industries that offer living wages and a career path. Heres executive director guy louden. We dont run it like a traditional school, where people are sitting in classrooms. Working out of books. Its a job. Our lead instructor functions more like a plant manager. Reporter the skills taught by jarc go beyond the factory floors. Students learn workplace ethics and the basis of personal finance. Friedman hired dozens from jarc over the years and began recently hiring from a local high school. Torres hughes is one of the workers from the school where students get diplomas and training in skills. We are going to have more on austins story coming up on street signs. In the meantime, go to cnbc. Com for more on where the jobs are. Back to you. Thank you very much, mary. Kayla tausche joins us with breaking news. Another company in growth mode. Go pro, we talked about it earlier today, because it confidentially filed for an ipo. I have a little more detail. Jpmorgan chase is the lead left underwriter on this ipo followed by citigroup and bank of america. Those are the underwriters they have so far. Go pro is of course an active lifestyle suite of products including cameras you wear on your wrist and forehead and very cool products. Im told revenues jumped nearly 100 between 2012 and 2013 from my sources. They posted 521 million in revenue in 2012 and are just shy of 1 billion in revenue for the last year. Of course, you have to be below 1 billion in revenue to be able to file confidentially under the jobs act. The ceo has said very publicly in several interviews that the company was quote, instantly profitable because of the margins there, and im told by my sources that go pro is eyeing an ipo at the end of this Second Quarter but that of course, those things are always fluid. So we dont have an exact date just yet. But jpmorgan, citigroup and bank of america on that deal for quite a highflying and high growth company. Sue . Thank you so much. Very interesting. Lets get back to todays disappointing jobs data. Just how concerned should we be about the slower than expected growth . Here with me at post nine once again, for our monthly visit, mark moriel and ron christie. Welcome, gentlemen. Pleasure to have you here. Great to be with you, sue. I will start with you, ron. There are so many uncertainties in this number. Was it the weather or was it the economy . I think the weather was part of it. If you look at the construction numbers, they were down, from 48,000 to 22,000 this past month. I think it did have some impact. Overall, what it shows is that the president s economic agenda, his vision of putting more money into the system and having this approach is just not working. You can respond to that. I want to know how much you think weather might have factored in. The weather might have had an impact but the truth is we are having a slow recovery that isnt creating enough jobs. We have weak demand so lets extend Unemployment Benefits, it will pump 1. 6 billion into the consumption side of the economy. Lets increase the minimum wage because wages have not kept pace with inflation, nor with productivity, and thirdly, i would like to see Congress Pass a transportation bill. Whats important to focus on is what can be done in the short run to try to stimulate the economy, and we have weak demand. You know, i was encouraged in this report although it was a very disappointing report overall, i was encouraged by the fact that some people decided to go back and start looking for jobs. Which is something that has been a problem in previous jobs report. Those who just feel like they feel lost. They feel like im never going to get another job, im not employable anymore, i have been out of work for more than six months. I found that a little bit of a Silver Lining. Thats about the only Silver Lining you will find in there. Those who are either parttime employed or those who will say im going to go back to work but the longer term issues, the mayor talks about extending Unemployment Benefits and raising minimum wage. You have 2. 4 Million People on minimum wage but half are between the ages of 16 and 24. If you are really talking about sustaining the economy and having long Term Economic growth, i dont think that will get it done. The important thing is what the minimum wage would do. Its a good short term step. It would help half the people earn minimum wage, many of them women raising children. I think we need to talk about what can be done immediately to try to alleviate this situation. I wanted to add, if three people who are unemployed seeking jobs for every job vacancy, the segment on chicago was good because it focused on the idea that job training, that newage type job training is a very important part of the formula. Thank you, gentlemen. Appreciate it very much. We had some breaking news we had to take care of and Michelle Carusocabrera joins us once again with more of that. Reporter the man who attempted to hijack a plane to sochi, russia, is in custody. Thats according to Richard Engel of nbc news. He tweeted out that he has spoken with turkish officials and that the man who attempted to hijack this plane that you see on the screen right now is in custody. Heres the if youre just joining us on this story, heres the situation. We learned about an hour ago from turkish officials that a man on board a flight going from ukraine to istanbul demanded that the crew divert the plane to sochi, claiming he had a bomb on board. The crusade they would do that. They shut down all the screens so no one could know where they were going and instead, continued the flight on to the istanbul airport on the asian side of istanbul. Landed the plane as they entered turkish air space, also confirmed that the turkish pilots tripped what is the hijacking alert system. They were escorted by two f16s from the Turkish Military to the airport, landed on the ground. There were more than 100 passengers on board but now Richard Engel tells us that turkish officials, he is quoting them, have taken the individual into custody. Inspections ongoing on that plane. Back to you. Michelle, thank you very much. We will continue to follow this still developing story as news warrants. Bill, lets go to you. Lets go back on the markets here. A rally day in stocks. Lets see what the bond traders are saying about the latest employment report. Rick santelli tracking the action at the cme in chicago. Sometimes the markets link up in a way that makes sense. Today is not one of those days. We see that treasury prices indeed are up and stocks are up. We settled yesterday at 2. 62. Where did we settle last week . 2. 64, up two on the week. You see the intraday chart. It really has quieted down. Rangewise, not tradingwise, after the big 8 30 jobs report. But the German Supreme Court punting on decommissioning the bazooka has resulted in low yields in italy and spain going back to 2006. Last chart is the dollar yen. It definitely is reversed. While that reverses, the linkages i mentioned seem to break down. Bill, sue, back to you. I will take it, thank you very much. We will take a break, come back.

Check out Fairway Group holdings, plummeting on nearly six times its normal trading volume. The fresh food retailer reporting weaker than expected Third Quarter earnings says instore sales fell for the period down 1. 7 due to shorter Holiday Shopping period. It also said its chief executive was retiring. Bill . You could argue that no two industries have experienced a bigger transformation or had as big a Global Impact on the economy than the automotive and Airline Industries over the last 25 years. Here with a look at the Industry Leaders that we should be tipping our hats to as we celebrate cnbcs 25th anniversary is phil lebeau. Where do you start when you start thinking about who the transformational leaders were in those industries . Who is your shoein right now . Ive got three, bill. We will start first with elon musk, the founder or cofounder and current ceo of tesla motors. A lot of people will look at this and say of course, Everybody Loves him. I want you to think about what hes done and just how remarkable it is. Youve got to go back to walter p. Chrysler back in 1929 to find another person who has started an automaker that lasted for several years. Spare me the talk about tucker and delorean and those guys. What elon musk is doing here is pretty remarkable. One more reason why he should be considered, you talk to any of the other auto makers and their executives, they all will admit that they are watching musk and watching tesla. You know, you said you had a couple others. Alan mullaly is on your list as well for the transformative way he took ford and moved it so decidedly from such a difficult time period to where they are now. Hes the master of the makeover. He deserves to be on this list not only for what hes done at ford but go back and think about his work prior to that at boeing. When you look at what hes done at ford, think about all of the leaders and executives over the previous 25 years who were at ford. They may have had moments of success but none of them fundamentally changed the business, the performance of the stock since mulally came in in 2006, this says it all. He has fundamentally changed that company. He has shown that you can teach an old dog new tricks by really focusing on one core mission and thats the ford mission. One ford when he first introduced it, a lot of people rolled their eyes and thought thats kind of a quaint catchy way of saying he will do the company. It has succeeded beyond everybodys wildest dreams. Then theres aerospace. You have chosen a man we knew around here back in the days when he worked at general electric. Hes had a varied career but jim mcnerny, right . He has been so impressive in his performance at boeing since 2005. Take a look at what the stock has done under his leadership. Think back to what boeing was like before he became ceo. It was a mess. The two previous ceos were canned one because of a scandal, because of extramarital affair, the others because of scandals involving government contracts. They were tired, guys, really tired. The product lineup was really suffering. Under him, ethics had become a priority. Then you have the dreamliner. He rescued it or at least steered the company through the problems they had when they were getting that launched. He set them on a course now for long term profitability. You look out at their order book and at their costs that are expected over the next ten years, there is no reason that boeing should not continue to soar higher. Lets stick with the airline industry. Who should have made the list thats not . I know theres a broad swath. Yeah. There are a number of possibilities. Theyre in the list of 200 executives. I think doug parker is an example of what my producer calls the little engine that could. If you think back to what doug parker has done, back in 2001 when he took over us airways or sorry, america west, people said watch what he does operationally. He was at the forefront of saying we need to seek consolidation. He turned america west into us airways into american airlines, the Largest Airline in the world. He has done it in part because of not only his vision but also because of his focus on operations and improving operations. He is somebody who has not only done a lot over the last 13 years but watch what he does over the next five or ten. I believe everything your producer says. We all do. Absolutely. By the way, back to automotive. Another guy you feel should have made the list, doug champion. Hes a dark horse. Some people might look at this and say whos david champion, why is he on this list. David champion ran Consumer ReportsAuto Division from 1987 to 2012, basically flashing a light in the eyes of auto makers and saying you know what, your quality stinks, you need to improve it. Hes a blunt critic of the industry. Hes no longer at Consumer Reports but what david champion did, he essentially made all the auto makers Pay Attention when it comes to safety and reliability. Think back to 1997, guys. Remember what we were driving back then . If you were driving one of those cars now, you would be saying wow, this is really poor. Not the case anymore. Sort of like j. D. Power. Very much. Very much. Who it occurs to me should be on the list as well. There you go. Theres another one. Thank you, phil. See you later. Marcus is in the house.

Welcome back to power lunch. Twitter rebounding nicely after a 24 drop the day before on the earnings right now, we are up more than 7 . If you recall, investors were spooked by the fact that user growth had slowed. Guess those worries were just yesterdays worries. That was so yesterday. It really ended in what this week has been all about. To the power rundown now. Marcus lemonis, host of the profit, also ceo of the multibillion Dollar Company camping world. The Second Season of the profit premieres february 25th right here on cnbc right after shark tank tuesdays. Welcome back. Congratulations on another new season coming this way on cnbc. We love that program. One of the issues to deal with now is this anemic jobs report. What is going on with the jobs issue . Is it all weather right now . I dont think its weather. We were 79,000 in december, were up to 113,000. Im not sure the numbers that bad. The economy isnt that great. So people are blaming it on weather. Im just blaming it on the fact that the economy isnt as good as people think it is. Not bad, but not as good as people think. We need to get used to this. This is the new normal . It feels like the new normal, at least in my business. I hired more in january than i did in december but im not going back to prerecession times. What do you make of the campaign out there to raise the minimum wage . Now its at 7. 25, the federal minimum wage. The president would love to see it go to 10. 10. Good or bad idea . The president wants it for federal employees. Im more concerned about the private sector, Small Businesses, medium sized businesses. Its hard to make a living on 7. 25 an hour. Im hearing a lot of companies tell me they cant afford to do it. If i take a look at their income statement and at their advertising expenses, some of the other frills, i would rather put the money in the employees pocket. Im in favor of raising. Even a man who runs a business as you do would be in favor of raising. Youre a contrarian on that. I know. But heres why. Without people in our business, without good people, we will lose them. When we lose them, we have to rehire. Whats the cost of rehiring and retraining . Dont you want to have somebody there for 10 or 15 years . Vice president biden, im sure you have been throughaguar. Its a mess. The infrastructure issue in this country, how do we solve that . I read the comment that biden said. I read his comment. My question is what about the schools . We are worried about infrastructure and airports. I want the plane to be safe. I want the airport to be functional. Im not interested in making the airports look prettier. Im interested in making schools more effective. We will talk about infrastructure, lets talk about the right infrastructure. You would advocate more on that. We have bridges, we have roads that need fixing as well and they could create jobs if you were to use federal funding. They could, but i can find a lot of other things to spend money on. Airports is not our first thing. Thats just how i feel about it. Thats how he rolls. Hes an individualist on a lot of issues. Good to see you. Brand new season of the profit resumes february 25th right here on cnbc. And theres more. Another big marcus announcement is coming up during street signs at 2 45 eastern time. You will not want to miss that. I dont know what that is. I will ask you what that is in just a moment here. Marcus is one of my favorite people. I love his show.

Are you ready . It is a game that at first is not as easy as you might think. People forget during the olympics theyre watching some of the worlds best players so they do make it look easy. Sweep it were going to be good. I think everybody gave it their best. I think they had a lot of fun. Oh, sure. Tyler was great. Sort of. I would train him fulltime. Even then, i dont think he has a shot. We might just tell him he does. They were very kind in editing because i spent most of the time on my keyster. Thats all i have to say. So i heard. But it is incredibly hard. A big shoutout to the curling club in South Plainfield. I had no idea there was a curling club near here. Absolutely. They were so fantastic. It is the weirdest activity ever but you cannot not watch it. It is fascinating to watch. It is. Thats what makes it so popular. We are pleased to have it on cnbc again. We are thrilled. Its a gentlemans game, a game of finesse. It is extremely hard. We just want to really thank them because we had a fantastic time. Those were all of our kids. It was the two families and it was just great fun. Thanks, everybody. We look forward to that beginning monday, 5 00 eastern. Right here on cnbc. Oh, theres more, trust me.
