May's results show another fall in overall confidence - a drop in the Digital Pulse of 3.87%. However confidence in future conditions, 6 months from now, has fallen less, by only 2.5%.

From the figures, it could be tempting to conclude that feelings within the digital sector are on the slide but the index of future conditions may point to some light at the end of the tunnel. Although it's dropped, the figure is quite low and may indicate a general slowing of business rather than a race towards the edge of a cliff. Let's hope so!
