Texas Instruments jumped 7 per cent in premarket trade on Wednesday, sparking a rally in chip stocks as its strong second-quarter revenue forecast fanned optimism that chip demand was picking up after a years-long slump.

The company is seen as a bellwether for semiconductor demand, as its products are used across industries ranging from automotive to industrial and consumer electronics including smartphones.

"Looking ahead, we anticipate Texas Instruments to drive a continued recovery profile into the 2H of the year and into 2025" said J.P. Morgan analysts in a note.
