Dow Jones Industrial Average futures climbed more than 400 points, or 1.1%, in early premarket trading, reflecting broad-based optimism across U.S. equities. The rally was driven by strong performances in both financial and cyclical sectors, with investors reacting positively to macroeconomic indicators and earnings momentum.

Both firms reported stronger-than-expected loan growth and capital markets activity in recent weeks, contributing to investor confidence. Delta Air Lines jumped 4.3% amid rising travel demand forecasts, with the airline reporting a 15% increase in booked seats for the first quarter compared to the same period last year. The gains come as fuel prices stabilized and passenger load factors remain elevated. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) shares rose 3.9% in U.S. premarket trading, supported by a surge in demand for advanced chips used in AI applications. The company announced plans to increase production capacity at its U.S. facility, with a target of 20% higher output by mid-2027.
