Thematic (Sector/Industry)

<p><strong>Infosys</strong>: We maintain BUY on Infosys (INFY), following the decade best Q1 growth and a strong growth outlook. Revenue growth guidance for FY22E was increased to 14-16% CC (12-14% earlier) and the EBIT margin band was maintained at 22-24% (despite the near-term supply crunch). INFY’s growth trajectory remains strong, supported by (1) a strong deal pipeline (higher QoQ), release in pent-up demand to restart the delayed projects, and sustainable improvement in large deals (USD 9.8bn TTM new large deal wins); (2) momentum across verticals – BFSI (nine large deals in Q1 vs six in Q4), retail, manufacturing, life-science and utilities, notwithstanding the lower net-new bookings; (3) structural operational pivots of offshoring and utilisation mitigating the near-term impact from higher sub-contracting; (4) uptick in fresher onboarding (35k in FY22 vs. 25k planned earlier and 21k in FY21) towards demand fulfilment and offsetting the near-term attrition surge. We remain positive on INFY (top pick in tier-1 IT) with &gt;13% EPS CAGR and &gt;40% RoIC valuing the company at INR 1,730, based on 28x Jun-23E EPS.</p>
<p><strong>L&amp;T Technology Services</strong>: We maintain REDUCE on L&amp;T Technology Services (LTTS), despite a slightly better Q1 revenue performance. Revenue guidance has been increased to 15-17% growth for FY22 (13-15% earlier), which implies a decelerated trajectory of 2-3% CQGR (as compared to 4.2% QoQ delivered in Q1FY22), despite a base benefit (FY21 at -6%). Two wins with TCV &gt;USD 25mn (similar to Q4) will support growth in the transportation vertical. LTTS' historical volatility in the large accounts bucket (&gt;USD 20mn accounts) and volatility due to variability in segmental operating profile are reflected in the growth guidance of ~800bps below its strongest year.</p>

Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.

Technical Analysis

<p>Our weight of the evidence approach continues to lead us to our view that the market remains mixed-yet-constructive overall. We explain our outlook below. </p><p>The S&amp;P 500 remains bullish, progressing past our first target of 4350 and now on its way to our next target of 4400-4406. As long as 4257-4275 support holds, we expect to see 4400 followed by 4460. Should 4257 fail to hold, our next support levels to watch would be 4164 followed by 4120; we are constructive as long as 4120 holds.</p>
