Bring in show music please.

Hi, I'm C. NBC producer Katie Kramer.

Today, on Squawk Pod.

A record quarter for ExxonMobil,

balancing giant profits for oil,

with big pressures of the pump,

and tricky politics around the world,

CEO Darren Woods.

I won't get into the political dynamics

of what's happening in the motivation there.

But I would say, ultimately ultimately we've got to increase

supply if we're going to continue to meet the demands of a growing economies all around

the world. Plus how environmental concern is affecting oil's bottom line.

We've gotten into this dynamic of where people are

choosing sides. It's either right or left, right or wrong. I continue to believe that, again, this is an and

equation. We're growing our production while

reducing emissions and the honeymoon begins the bird is free

Elon Musk officially owns Twitter 4444 billion in a full soap opera later.

So the big question is, is Elon Musk going to be a good corporate citizen?

Those conversations, plus our economies growing, for one quarter at least, and

see NBC's Sharon Epperson reports on what may be a safe haven for your money.

That's a far better return than you'll get on online same accounts or see these right now if you can actually buy the I bonds.
