Plaintiffs in the case argue that Meta has a pattern of prioritizing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/02/43964101/meta-hit-with-lawsuit-claiming-it-favors-foreign-workers-over-us-citizens-mark-zuckerberg-led-tech-giant-calls-it-baseless">visa holders</a> for employment, a claim supported by court-cited statistics: 15% of Meta&#8217;s U.S. workforce holds H-1B visas, compared to 0.5% across all industries.

<a href="https://www.infosys.com/">Infosys</a>&nbsp;(NSE: INFY) (BSE: INFY) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INFY#NYSE">INFY</a>), a global leader in next-generation digital services and consulting today announced the expansion of its long-standing strategic collaboration with Citizens,&nbsp;one of the oldest and largest financial institutions in the US.
Citizens will leverage Infosys&#39; deep domain expertise in financial services and its innovative technologies, including AI, cloud, and automation to develop cloud native domain platforms and achieve data center exit. This AI-enabled transformation will also foster an ecosystem of valuable FinTech and hyperscaler collaborations, delivering hyper-personalized AI-powered customer experiences, and enhancing operational resilience and stability.&nbsp;
Over the last five years, Citizens and Infosys have achieved significant milestones: developed and implemented a comprehensive strategy and blueprint in domain centric platforms, established a robust data lake, developed enterprise APIs, reached 90 percent in test automation, successfully migrated critical workloads to the cloud while maintaining operational resilience, and rationalized applications and tools.

Infosys Announces Expansion Of Strategic Collaboration With Citizens; Citizens Will Leverage Infosys' Deep Domain Expertise In Financial Services And Its Innovative Technologies, Including AI, Cloud, And Automation To Develop Cloud Native Domain Platforms And Achieve Data Center Exit

In the current session, Infosys Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INFY#NYSE">INFY</a>) is trading at $19.11, after a 1.70% decrease. Over the past month, the stock decreased by 13.91%, and in the past year, by 2.45%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1741712439_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Infosys P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 110.17 in the IT Services industry, Infosys Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 24.61. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1741712439_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

Guggenheim Reiterates Neutral on Infosysto Neutral

Wall Street paused for a breather on Thursday, following Wednesday's big rally sparked by a softer-than-predicted December inflation report that fueled speculation on the Federal Reserve delivering interest rate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43003047/stocks-rise-on-core-inflation-slowdown-banks-rally-after-strong-q4-earnings-treasury-yields-plummet">cuts during the year. </a>
By midday, stocks were little changed as attention shifted to the next major event: Donald Trump's inauguration as 47th U.S. president on Monday.
On the data front, December retail sales rose 0.4% from the previous month, a slower pace than November's 0.8% increase and below expectations of 0.6%. Jobless claims climbed by 16,000 to 217,000, slightly higher than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43027744/retail-sales-slow-jobless-claims-rise-is-us-consumer-loosing-steam">the projected 210,000. </a>

The weaker data sent Treasury yields lower, with the 10-year yield slipping four basis points to 4.61%, extending the previous day's 14-basis-point decline.
Falling yields helped gold climb 0.9% to $2,970 per ounce, reaching a two-month high as investors moved toward safe-haven assets. 
Semiconductor stocks stood out the best-performing industry, with the iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>) gaining 1.8%. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) jumped more than 5% after delivering strong quarterly earnings, lifting the broader chip industry. Applied Materials Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMAT#NASDAQ">AMAT</a>) and ASML Holding N.V. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) advanced 7% and 6%, respectively.
Oil prices pulled back 2.6%, giving up part of Wednesday's 4% gain. Traders speculated that Trump's policies could ease sanctions on Russian energy exports as part of a broader effort to negotiate peace in Ukraine. 
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) edged down 1% to $99,000, following a slight pullback across cryptocurrency markets.

Goldman Sachs analyst James Schneider expects fourth-quarter 2024 reports to reflect gradual demand improvement in 2025 guidance. Based on intra-quarter management commentary and Accenture (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACN#NYSE">ACN</a>)
Schneider expects modest beats for his <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/information-technology-services-industry" rel="noreferrer noopener">IT Services coverage</a> in the quarter.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The analyst noted that 2025 guidance will reflect modest revenue acceleration that mirrors a gradually improving customer demand environment and monitored Tata Consultancy Services and Infosys (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INFY#NYSE">INFY</a>) reports.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42882959/intel-partners-with-amazon-cloud-to-drive-next-gen-smart-vehicle-tech" rel="noreferrer noopener">Intel Partners with Amazon Cloud to Drive Next-Gen Smart Vehicle Tech, Wins Stellantis, Karma Auto As Clients</a>
Despite the bottoming in fundamentals, Schneider noted investor expectations have modestly deteriorated in recent weeks, given stiffer FX headwinds across the coverage.
As the analyst continues to see cyclical headwinds moderate, he now prefers applications-focused names like International Business Machines Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NYSE">IBM</a>), Globant (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLOB#NYSE">GLOB</a>), and EPAM Systems, Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EPAM#NYSE">EPAM</a>).
He also noted that IBM remains well-positioned for growth as software growth continues to reflect accelerating trends versus history. The analyst&#8217;s estimates for the fourth quarter remain broadly in line with the Street&#8217;s but he expects 2025 guidance to reflect higher revenues from Red Hat&#8217;s outperformance and the upcoming mainframe refresh in the second quarter of 2025.
Investors will likely focus on software growth and portfolio mix as key metrics, with consulting trends under greater scrutiny.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Schneider noted IBM can pivot its software portfolio to mid- to high-single-digit growth while taking share in consulting, with room for multiple expansions. Investor Day is the next catalyst for the stock.
Schneider projected fourth-quarter revenue of $17.62 billion and adjusted EPS of $3.76.
He noted that Globant expects a solid growth outlook with solid margin expansion in 2025. The analyst expects Globant to deliver a largely in-line quarter but thinks 2025 guidance will reflect revenue acceleration and steady margin expansion supported by its unique positioning in high-growth verticals amid a gradual cyclical recovery. Schneider expects investors to focus on revenue growth trends to gauge the rate of potential revenue re-acceleration in 2025.
The analyst projected fourth-quarter revenue of $649 million and adjusted EPS of $1.74.
EPAM&#8217;s 2025 outlook is likely to reflect modest organic growth, as per Schneider. The analyst expects an in-line fourth quarter with 2025 guidance that reflects stabilizing to improving discretionary trends, as he noted the company is set to capture recovering demand for new technology builds and other high-end engineering services. Schneider noted investors will be focused on the pace of EPAM&#8217;s organic re-acceleration given improving fundamentals in 2025.
Schneider projected fourth-quarter revenue of $1.21 billion and adjusted EPS of $2.78.
Price Actions: IBM stock is down 0.47% at $216.38 at last check Tuesday. GLOB is down 1.14% and EPAM is up 0.03%.
