Muted Profit & Margin Pressures, Top IT Stocks Available At Lower Prices: Buy?
Amid a downturn in the macroeconomy in the global markets, IT stocks performed significantly higher than expected during the pandemic. However, in the past one year, share prices of IT companies have fallen significantly, due to muted profits which led to margin pressures.
Top IT firms like Infosys, Wipro, and TCS have reported lower-than-expected earning reports in the last two quarters. Additionally, the hiring numbers across the industry are also not affirmative, and the freshers are also facing the challenges of delayed onboarding. Globally, the high inflation rate and a possible recession in the US are concerning investors. So, stocks of major US-based IT firms are dipping, impacting similarly the Indian equity markets.
