The Scorelogix IT Job Security Index increased by 8.1% in August 2012 when compared to July 2012, and increased by 30.9% in August 2012 when compared to August 2011. After a sharp increase last month, the index continued a more moderately paced increasing trend this month. However, in the mid-term, a slowing economy will have a negative impact and Scorelogix continues to forecast further slight decreases. These contradictory short and moderate term factors, suggest that volatility may be the overall watchword for this index in the coming months.
