Glittering Gold, Platinum, Sterling Silver <strong>and</strong><br />
Precious Stones. We all know that the price of<br />
gold has been fluctuating around $1500.00 an<br />
ounce <strong>and</strong> still climbing depending upon the news<br />
of the day. As you may recall, for the last two<br />
years in our Buyers Letter, we suggested buying<br />
gold jewelry, etc. Add platinum, sterling silver<br />
<strong>and</strong> precious <strong>and</strong> semi-precious stones to our<br />
recommendations. Platinum is currently about<br />
$1800.00 per ounce. In the last ten years, dem<strong>and</strong><br />
for fine jewelry has led the “ supply <strong>and</strong> dem<strong>and</strong>”<br />
law; especially from emerging markets such as<br />
China. The price of gold is affected by a lack of<br />
new supply as the world's largest gold mines are<br />
struggling to maintain production. Gold is<br />
bought <strong>and</strong> sold in US dollars which means that<br />
an upheaval in the value of the dollar causes the<br />
price of gold to rise <strong>and</strong> fall. Presently, the value<br />
of the dollar is affected by trade, the economy <strong>and</strong><br />
multiple sources. Historically, fine jewelry has<br />
provided a haven during times of crisis <strong>and</strong> can<br />
be bought, sold or exchanged. During World<br />
War II, many Europeans were able to escape as<br />
they fled their native countries with fine jewelry<br />
sewn inside their clothing, providing a resource to<br />
purchase their safety, freedom <strong>and</strong> travel. Just a<br />
suggestion: Make a monetary investment while<br />
adorning oneself with gorgeous jewelry, diamonds,<br />
emeralds, rubies, sapphires, tanzanites,<br />
pearls, etc., because you love magnificent jewelry<br />
<strong>and</strong> with the knowledge that your fine jewelry<br />
purchase could be your ticket to safety. We repeat,<br />
fine jewelry is a commodity which never<br />
loses its value. It’s easy to transport, small<br />
enough to secure, <strong>and</strong>, during turbulent times, is<br />
often used as a source of cash/trade. Now is actually<br />
a great time to purchase <strong>and</strong> invest in fine<br />
jewelry. Many fine jewelry exhibitors, hurt badly<br />
by the exorbitant price of gold, are selling fine<br />
jewelry at below restocking prices, not charging<br />
value per ounce. IT’S ALL ABOUT SUPPLY<br />
AND DEMAND! NOTE: In our November 2010<br />
<strong>and</strong> March 2011 Buyers’ Letter, we recommended<br />
purchasing druzies. An exhibitor told<br />
us that druzies had multiplied cost by ten times<br />
during that short time interval. Members of The<br />
<strong>Norton</strong> <strong>Shows</strong> are not financial advisors or wizards<br />
of trade. Recommendations are our own.<br />
