"Other bottom contributors in Q2 included First Interstate BancSystem, Taseko Mines and WNS (Holdings) Limited (NYSE:WNS). India-based business process management (BPM) services company WNS weakened as investors contemplated whether artificial intelligence (AI) could disrupt the company’s BPM solutions. However, we do not believe AI will be a major threat to the company’s value proposition given its BPM expertise. On the contrary, we anticipate AI may present opportunities for WNS to implement AI-related solutions on behalf of its clients and prospects."
