Markets don’t bottom because stocks look cheap.
They bottom when earnings stop getting downgraded.
Until then, expect to keep hearing:
“Kya IT sector ne bottom bana liya hai?”
#IT#Accenture#Nifty#Markets#Mutualfunds
Another weak quarter from Accenture reinforces that the business environment for IT services remains challenging.
Indian IT index is down ~28% YTD and ~43% from the Jan’25 peak. As the 2nd-largest index weight, it has also dragged Nifty’s returns.
Can IT recover?
Yes—but not on valuations alone.
A durable turnaround needs:
• AI revenues to scale
• Recovery in tech spending
• Better margins
• Positive earnings revisions
“Kya aapke toothpaste mein namak hai?” We all remember that iconic tagline.
Markets have their own versions:
• Kya IT sector ne bottom bana liya hai?
• Kya sab kuch price mein hai?
• Kya isse neeche bhi jaa sakta hai?
After Accenture’s results, expect to hear them again.

Alongside oil spike risk, this could move to disorderly global chaos.
The war may not remain this intense for long, but it could get worse from here before it gets better.
Markets pricing these risks ??
#IranWar#Nifty#Oil#Underseacables
As the war enters its fourth week, what are the worst possibilities :
1) More damage to the energy infrastructure-Brent Oil spikes again past 125 ; Natural Gas shortage worsens
2) Fresh attacks on GCC countries’ tourist ecosystem - could worsen the sentiment further..
1/3
3) More intense activity in the sea-SoH or even a probability of disruption of the undersea cables.
About 95% of global data flows thru these cables.
Implications-internet disruption, payment & market plumbing stress, IT services hit.
2/3
Finally, Sanju Samson plays the most crucial innings of his career. What a fantastic display of balanced batting skills. India move to semis in style. Final week of the T20WC

of elevated levels leaving importers like India at risk of higher inflation & current account
• Equities gap down as risk premium rises, VIX spiking, flight to gold/Treasuries/USD
• Inflation reload → Fed/ECB cuts delayed, multiples compress
#Equities#Geopolitics#Oil#Iran
Operation Epic Fury — US/Israel strikes kill Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei & top brass. Iran retaliates with missiles/drones on Israel + US bases in Gulf. Day 3 escalation.
How will markets react :
• Oil price is the first casualty as war+Hormuz risk increases possibility..
Indian IT in a structural transition. At $315B in revenues, the share of AI services is just under 4% indicating a long way to go before the industry achieves some meaningful scale in AI arena.
Though the industry will still show net head count additions in FY26, the coming years remain uncertain on this front . Indian IT isn’t the old growth story. It’s a structural change — AI compressing legacy work, slowing hiring velocity, shifting from scale to value/AI-led models
