Data tracking:
Demand recovered + Alrosa was sanctioned, and the shortage of supply intensified. The price of natural finished diamonds rose rapidly in February:
In February, IDEX finished diamond price index rose by 4.14% in a single month, 24.2% year-on-year and 6.2% month on month. The recovery after the epidemic in major global markets and the upgrading of Chinese consumption have led to a 29% increase in global retail sales of diamonds and jewelry and a 62.5% increase in India's natural diamond exports in 21 years, a compound increase of 7.6% over 19 years. In the context of strong demand, the prices of natural rough drilling and bare drilling continued to rise in the past 21 years, rising by 21% and 9% respectively, which has returned to the historical average level since 2004.
Since the beginning of the year, the price of natural diamonds has continued to rise. In February, after the Russian Ukrainian war, Alrosa group was sanctioned, and the orders of middle and downstream enterprises in the diamond industry may face weeks and months of delay. At present, Alrosa's sanctions are mainly limited account period and "USD payment". Alrosa is also actively seeking to use "non USD method" to solve the payment crisis.
