What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Trump administration implemented new visa restrictions, suspending an immigration program used by tech firms, and specifically mentioned HCL Technologies Ltd. and Tata Consultancy Services Ltd. Analysts note that the IT sector has sharply underperformed markets, partly due to negative narratives surrounding Generative AI and uncertainty related to the Gulf War.
