Accenture, a giant in the consulting and tech world, just warned that its revenue growth is slowing down. That spooked investors into selling off Indian tech companies, whose stock prices dropped as much as 7%.

## Idea

Indian IT companies like Infosys often follow the lead of Accenture because they compete for the same global contracts. When Accenture warned about slower growth, these stocks dropped sharply — but that might be an overreaction. These companies still have massive cash reserves and loyal clients, so a single warning from a competitor probably won't derail their whole business. When good stocks fall too far too fast on general fear, they often bounce back once the panic settles. This could be a chance to buy quality tech names at a discount.
