对于行业中的许多人来说，建筑市场似乎已经稳定，并且开始显示生命的迹象。但是，公共和私人的所有者之间存在一些担忧，即启动新的资本计划的资金可用性。因此，建筑行业认为，直到2013年，任何重大反弹都不会发生。

最新的ENR建筑行业信心指数调查新利18备用显示了该行业的守护乐观。2012年第二季度CICI从第一季度下降了两分，降至56分，比例为100。（CICI评级为50代表稳定的市场。）449位大型建筑和设计公司的高管对调查做出回应，这是对市场的回应。已经停止跌倒并显示出增长的迹象。

CICI衡量了有关当前市场的行政情绪，并反映了他们对未来三到六个月以及12到18个月以上的观点。该指数基于对ENR领先承包商，分包商和设计公司的ENR清单中向3,000多家美国公司发送的调查的回应。新利18备用最新结果基于5月24日至6月11日进行的调查。

The CICI also measures sentiment about the U.S. economy, a leading indicator of future construction trends. In the second quarter, confidence in the U.S. economy fell to a CICI rating of 55, from 64 in the last quarter. This rating marks the first time that CICI repondents' confidence in the overall economy was lower than their confidence in the market.

There is still a great deal of uncertainty regarding the current market. Recent pessimistic reports about the economy, including an unexpected rise in the unemployment rate, have given owners pause, according to some respondents. "Our markets are tending to improve, but I think the general economy will not," says an executive at one large Midwestern specialty contractor.

Many respondents say that some projects are on hold, pending the results of this year's presidential election, when there will be more certainty about the direction Washington will take. "It's a presidential election year. Not much will change until 2013," says an exec at a mid-size engineer-contractor in the South.

As for the current market, slightly more respondents (24%) believe it is still in decline; however, 21% believe it is growing. But 29% believe the market will be growing by the end of the year, compared to the 20% who believe it will still be in decline.

The industry's expectations for the market in 2013 remain high. Only 8% of respondents believe the market will continue to be in decline in 12 to 18 months, while 57% say it will be improving.
