Rapaport Research Report - July 2021

The Rapaport Research Report is essential reading for those seeking to understand diamond price trends and the current state of the industry throughout the diamond pipeline.

The report includes extensive, proprietary data from RapNet, the world’s largest diamond trading platform, giving a snap shot of real-world pricing information, inventory levels and transactional data to help you keep track of the market. This includes average prices, discounts and inventory by country alongside search volume, average time to sale and transaction volume.

In addition to reviewing the global rough, polished and retail markets, each month the Rapaport Research Report focuses in on a key issue affecting the diamond industry, providing definitive analysis and insight, while assessing the potential impact on your business and the industry as a whole.

In this edition, we look at the strategies that helped Signet Jewelers achieve its recent turnaround. Under its three-year Path to Brilliance program, the company cut costs and invested in digital — measures that empowered it to cope with the 2020 economic crisis better than most. We assess Signet’s new Inspiring Brilliance plan, which management expects will bolster revenue and market share over the next few years.
