It's Jim Kramer here. You're listening to the opening bell of CBC's Squawk on the Street.

Don't miss a minute of the action. Good Friday morning. Welcome to Squawk on the Street. I'm Carl Keentineo with Jim Kramer, David Fabry, at Post 9 of the New York Stock Exchange. Stocks try to assemble some green arrows. Financial is getting a bounce, a key upgrade. And then, of course, April Jobs comes in ahead of expectations, $253,000 with wage growth a bit hot.

It's a 13th consecutive month of better than expected job growth. Our roadmap begins with the

job's number coming in along with that surge in wage growth. On the earnings front, well, we've got

Apple's results and they did exceed what most of the analysts following the company had been

forecasting, find out what Tim Cook told CNBC about the quarter. Plus, wrapping up another

rough week for regional banks. This, of course, amidst worries about many of those banks. Help the

number of the beaten down names though. Well, they look to recoup some of those losses. You

probably saw it in the last few minutes.

A lot of them up double digits.

Yeah, how do you like that?

Come on.

We'll begin with the April jobs number though, as we said,

253 Street was looking for 180.

The revisions though, Jim, kind of make the last couple months a wash.

Yeah, I thought that was interesting because, well, first of all, we're all used to

numbers being accurate.

So in any other business, we would think you run them through, you know, if you had

Salesforce, you had service now, you would never get this kind of thing.

So you have to look at the revisions first, and then you realize, wait a second.

So the economy may not be that hot but

but then we come back to this same these same uh areas keep dogginess we don't have enough people
