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 Thursday morning. Welcome to Squawk on the Street. I'm Carl Kinteneer with Jim Kramer at Post 9 of the New York Stock Exchange. David Faber has the morning off. Future is kind of resilient here in the face of some hot eco-data, whether that's Q4 GDP, Durables, Best Print in nearly three years, or jobless claims.

Ten-year climbs to 352 on a very busy day for earnings as well.

Our roadmap's going to begin with Tesla.

Record quarter shares up more than 27% just this month.

Chevron with a $75 billion share buyback, boosting the dividend.

And Southwest Chief Bob Jordan is going to join us this hour

after the airline posted that $220 million loss

following the holiday service meltdown over there.

Let's begin, though, with the record results for Tesla

and Elon Musk is expressing some optimism about demand.

Here's what he said last night on the call.

Thus far in January, we've seen the strongest orders year to date than ever in our history.

We currently are seeing orders at almost twice the rate of production.

So, I mean, that's hard to say whether that will continue twice

air production, but the orders are high.

And we've actually raised the model at Y price a little bit in response to that.

So we don't, we think demand will be good despite

probably a contraction in the automotive market as a whole.

Share is going to open above 150, which was originally long ago a bear case in Morgan Stanley.

Now they say it's where investors will get interested again.

Well, I think that the marginal price cuts brought in a lot of buyers.

I think that fantastic year.
