i agree with QQ, i mean its no suprsie that diamond sales are down. show me one commodity that isnt expereince a slowdown in demand. however, this is where i feel comfortable enough and be patient. now iam not tellin you to do the same, everyone has different risk tolerence. but the fact that GZD is diversified in GOLD, which is outperforming the majority of other commodites, helps me to sleep at night. Having said that, dont forget that eventually the downturn will end, and demand for diamonds will come back. Think about it this way, if GZD can its better to drill now when labour, energy costs etc..is cheaper then during a boom time. find the diamonds now when its cheaper and sell the property after during boom time loL!
