Texas Instruments closed at $288.64, a single-session slide that erased roughly $13 billion in market value.

Texas Instruments has followed AMD announcements in the same direction five out of five times, a pattern suggesting institutional traders treat AMD platform news as a read-through for the broader chip sector, with Texas Instruments bearing a disproportionate share of the reaction.
A steep intraday drop followed by a shallow bounce reflects sellers in control with limited conviction on the buy side.
