When do you think the contract market will pick up again? Jan? Feb? (2017)

[WTFH]

But then we are back to September and October when there are no budgets...

And no good projects ever get started in November or December

So, 2018 then?

I wouldn't worry about it as Trump will have pushed the button by then and it'll all be over (who'd have thunk it would take a nuclear war to finally kill contracting... HMRC take note!)

Will pick up early January.

Have no actual evidence to support that theory but thought I might give wishful thinking a go as nothing else seems to be working.

No it won't.

[SussexSeagull]

No it won't.

Oh yes it will.

[RSoles]

It already has.
I have two offers already. Not happened to me before...................




Maybe I'm too cheap.....

[SueEllen]

Oh yes it will.

Oh no it won't.

[SussexSeagull]

Oh no it won't.

It's behind you.

Any words of wisdom on when the contract market might pick back up again? I guess everyone's on holidays until 1st week of January, which makes it pointless to even try to find something at the moment...is it reasonable to expect to get something in January? or do you think it will be slow until Feb?

Thanks for your thoughts... I've been searching online, but there's not much.
