Fewer people sell jewelry

Published on

There’s less people going to sell their jewelry. A sign that the global economy is getting better is precisely the decrease of gold from recycled jewelery, bars, coins and products industry, which dropped to 1,122 tons. According to the World Gold Council, the industry association of the leading gold mining, the volume has never been so low since 2007. Basically, the report published in collaboration with the Boston Consulting Group says that it has came back to pre-crisis levels . The reason? The turnover of the main source of precious metal second hand, that is jewelry, decreased because people no longer sells for cash. Analysts say that economic shocks may increase by 20% of the activities of so-called buy gold and similar, it happened during the Asian crisis in the late 1990s and there was a 25% increase during the last crisis in 2008 -2009. A lucrative trade that, however, now seems on the decline, at least in the US, with some sensational cases such as Cash4Gold.com. The site specialized in buy gold in 2009 had a turnover that could afford to pay $ 3 million for its commercials during the Super Bowl, but after just three years has failed. Perhaps the fault is not only due to a drastic drop in customers, but this company has declared bankruptcy and has changed hands. The devaluation of gold has had its relevance: the experts have shown a correlation between the decline in metal prices and and the activities of buy gold. For example, in 1999, when an ounce (a little more than 28 grams) of yellow metal was worth $ 250 provenance was distributed as follows: 73% mineral production and 17% recycling. Ten years after the value has exceeded for the first time the $ 1,000, the second rate has risen to 42%, a record since it stood at 26%. Of course, in countries like China and India which represent 60% of world demand is a sector yet to be developed, but in the West, things are changing. Federico Graglia

We change, we had joked: Stroili will not be sold to an Indian (https://gioiellis.com/stroili-venduta-indiano/). The newspaper Corriere della Sera, in an article by Carlo Turchetti, grinding the news published in November on the same pages. The owners of the brand of jewelry, the fund Investindustrial of Andrea Bonomi (which holds 31% indirectly), together with Intesa Sanpaolo (12%), 21 Investments (Benetton, with about 9%) and Wise Sgr ( about 9%), plus the Ergon fund, Francesco Micheli and De Nora family, have asked too much, or the bottom Emerisque direct from the Indian Ajay Khaitan, has rethought about it. Conclusion: Stroili remains Italian until further notice, and continues to be directed by ceo Maurizio Merenda. The purchase price of around 300 million, major of the revenues (230 million) may have discouraged investment. To purchase Stroili had also spoken of the Italian fund Clessidra by Claudio Sposito, which is headed for the activities related to luxury, to the former administrator of Bulgari, Francesco Trapani.

Pomellato, budget so so

Published on
/

Salma Hayek, wife of François Pinault, is now also a colleague of the French tycoon  luxury group founder Kering: the actress is, in fact, the new face of Pomellato, an Italian jewelry company that was purchased by the Parisian empire  just two years ago . Salma replaces the icy face of Tilda Swinton, who caused shivering (with cold) even in August. The job of the new ambassador, who has been shot voluptuously between the transparency of a pool in Los Angeles by Mert and Marcus, is also to warm the sales of the company famous also for rings Nudo, or for brand Dodo.

By the findings of the company’s financial records there is still a a long way to go. The last annual accounts available are those relating to 2013 (the 2014 budget has not yet been drafted). And just scroll down the columns for numbers to see how the situation of the company founded in 1965 by Pino Rabolini, conducted by Andrea Morante and chaired by Jean Marc Duplaix, needs a dash of good news. Nothing dramatic, mind you, but the crisis that envelops part of the jewelry world does not leaves out the company, which at the time that filed the accounts was split into two different entities: Pomellato SpA, the operating company, and the subsidiary Pomellato Europa.

The numbers speak for themselves: revenues in 2013 fell from 120.5 million euro to 117.7 million , a decrease by -2.37%. But worse was the gross operating margin (ie the one that determines the final result): the Ebitda, indeed, fell from 19.6 to 23.6 million, a decrease by almost 17%. A shrinking also for the cash flow, that is, the money cash: on 31 December 2013 Pinault has found 10.3 million euro, compared with 13.4 for the previous year. A situation that has brought profits down, fallen from 10.5 million to 6.7 million (-35.5%). On the other hand debts rose from 1,7 million to 2,5 million: in any case, a low figure compared to the level of income and the balance sheet of the company. Different situation for Pomellato Europa, which is a company of more small size. The subsidiary of its parent company, used for trading, closed with a loss of almost half a million euro compared to a profit of  413 thousand euro for the previous year, with revenues of 11.4 million. In short, gold jewelry, but numbers a bit less valuable. Federico Graglia

New ceo at Damiani group

Published on
Giorgio Grassi Damiani con Sofia Loren

The Damiani Group is the only one luxury company listed on the Italian Stock Exchange. As such it is required to give account of his business every three months: an exercise uncomfortable, but that provides transparency to investors. Here, then, the accounts of the company from Piedmont in the first nine months of 2014-2015 (the budget closes every 31 March). Taking into account that in Italy the consumption is falling for all, the accounts are not too bad, in fact, show signs of recovery. In the accounts at December 31, 2014, revenues were up 5% at constant exchange rates, to 115.4 million euro. The good news is the growth in sales in the retail segment (+ 6.3%), and in particular the brand Damiani (58 direct sales outlets) is what pulls more, an increase of 22%. The retail channel, accounts for about 40% of the total turnover of the group. A little ‘in contrast with the rest of the market, Damiani also shows an increase in Italy by more than 5%, while overseas the revenue totaled an increase of 3.5% at constant rates, and 2.3% in current rates compared to the same period previous year, affected mainly by the devaluation of the yen. Positive gross margin (Ebitda) is of 5.2 million euro, with an improvement of 4.9 million euro compared to 31 December 2013. But the result remains a negative, albeit reduced: the nine months closed with eur -1.4 million, which still means an improvement of 61.6% compared to a year ago. No good news also from the negative net financial position of 50.2 million euro (40.8 million euro at March 31, 2014), but “as a result of seasonality and investments made during the period.”
But there is also a major innovation at the management of the group: the board of directors, “in view of the increasing direct involvement of President Guido Grassi Damiani in the process of internationalization of the Group, whose strategy is increasingly focused at a direct presence in foreign markets, has approved the appointment to the post of ceo of Damiani spa of vice president Giorgio Grassi Damiani, with control over operational management of Italian society. “Essentially Guido Grassi Damiani will continue to make the ambassador of the group around the world, while the reins operational industrial pass to his brother George.

The 2015 for Tiffany

Florence Rollet, presidente di Tiffany Europe

A preview of the 2015 and a budget of work done so far: Florence Rollet is president of Tiffany & Co Europe. She was interviewed for L’Espresso by Roselina Salemi, former editor of the weekly A. We report the essential part.

The video for Christmas by Tiffany is simple. No actor. Only a short animated at fifty shades of blue. Location, a New York winter between Times Square, Tower Bridge, the ice rink, where couples and families carrying the Tiffany jewelry in macro version, only item not cartoon, from one part of the city. A magical world. Behind But there are people like Florence Rollet, President of Tiffany & Co. Europe, which give solidity to the fairy tale. Blonde, short hair, not very bejeweled (but the brooch that door is Schlumberger, one of the most famous designer of Tiffany) Florence Rollet is the first woman to hold such a position in the giant world of jewelry.
From beer to jewelry via the Dior perfumes. What is left of these experiences?
“It was a long way from the Kronenbourg brewery to today. I was in charge of the commercial and marketing. It was significant to me the year in Greece in 1990 to Henninger. I immediately loved this country, I learned the language. Going abroad is an experience that I recommend strongly to young people because it enriches, forces you to get back on topic, expands our vision to other ways of thinking. Teaches tolerance. I traveled a lot, I worked with people that I have been inspired.”
She is at the European summit of Tiffany. There is more space for women today, in the companies?
“The world has moved much on this issue in the last twenty years. Being a woman is not a defect or a quality, it is a fact! For some men a woman at the top can be a problem, but just react with professionalism and sense of humor, without being dramatic. I had the chance to be appreciated and supported. The most important thing is to adapt to the culture of the company. I was one of the first directors to Kronenbourg sales, and one of the first to have a general direction from Coty and I never had any problems. ”
What is your best quality?
“Two guidelines: to serve the customer and work in teams with colleagues.”
What added value brought new designers Francesca Amfitheatrof?
“A wave of energy. Has the same vision and creative passion that Charles Lewis Tiffany had 177 years ago, when it began our story. The Tiffany-T, designed by her, have been successful, but we are lucky: we have iconic collections that go beyond fashion and continue to enjoy anywhere in the world. Many celebrate the milestones of life with an object of value. Tiffany has high quality, hand fabrication and design that you can hand down in time. ”
What news do you have in the pipeline?
“There is not another Gatsby, but in 2015 we have many exciting initiatives, the creation of a documentary about Tiffany and opening a flagship store in Geneva.”

Morante and Rabolini, goodbye to Pomellato

Published on
Andrea Morante

Andrea Morante and Pino Rabolini, the souls of Pomellato, say goodbye. This was revealed in an article by Maria Silvia Sacchi, journalist for Corriere della Sera well informed (even) on the events in the world of fashion. Once you have joined Locman (https://gioiellis.com/anima-di-pomellato-entra-locman) the two have now acquired a 51% stake in Amf Snaps, an Italian company active in the field of design, production and marketing of accessories for luxury. Along with family Rabolini Ra.Mo holding, Andrea Morante (ceo of Pomellato), there is the family of Del Bon, of Bruni Glass. The operation was coordinated by Italglobal Partners, an investment holding company founded by Ruggero Jenna and Francesco Sala. The deal saw the acquisition of the stake held by the fund Cape Natixis Two and the company’s capitalization. The family Faerber, founder of the company, has increased its stake to 49%. The plan of the new shareholders, says Morante, is getting to about 30 million in revenue over five years, compared to about 18 million which is expected to close in 2014. “Within three years we want to enter in the stock exchange,” said Morante. Amf is based in Bassano del Grappa (Vicenza). Carmen Toffanello was confirmed ceo. Here is the article published by Corriere.

Throughout the 2015 Andrea Morante will have a thought before any other: Pomellato, the group of jewelery of which (since 2009) is ceo. In late 2015, however, the manager will hand the company to the Kering men, the French company that has bought control in 2013 by the same Morante and its founder Pino Rabolini. At least a bit of money collected with that task is returning to Italy. Morante and Rabolini, in fact, in a few days announced they have detected 51% (with the family Del Bon) of Amf Snaps, company design, manufacture and marketing of accessories for the luxury. And of the 11.5% in the company of Marco Mantoiani, Locman watches. “For a full year for me the priority is Pomellato – says Morante -. But I believe it is the time to seize the opportunity and give support to initiatives that need more ideas, internationality and positivity, and not a financial support. Locman is one of the few Italian brands of watches remained, has its own history and its own school and success in Italy, have to be good to go well here… As for Amf is active in that segment of the metallic objects for the luxury in which Italy is excellence”.
And virtuous, though still at the level of start-up, is Stecco Nature, Sicilian ice cream that Morante has found alone, but where will be joined by Rabolini. The food is an “old friend” of Morante, manager-entrepreneur with a past as a man of the City, who had been interested in Peck before it passed to Peter Marzotto. “The food that combines the well-being and the quality will be the new frontier,” he says. Who knows if it will be there the next investment of Morante-Rabolini. M.S.S.

L’anima di Pomellato entra in Locman

Un pizzico di Pomellato negli orologi Locman. L’azienda italiana di segnatempo vede l’ingresso tra i soci di Giuseppe Rabolini e Andrea Morante, rispettivamente fondatore e amministratore delegato di Pomellato. Rabolini e Morante acquisiscono l’11,5% della società di orologeria con sede all’Isola d’Elba. D’altra parte le due aziende si conoscono bene. L’attuale collezione di orologi Dodo (brand del gruppo Pomellato), per esempio, è stata prodotta proprio da Locman. L’impresa toscana, fondata nel 1986 dall’attuale presidente e socio di maggioranza, Marco Mantovani, che la guida assieme a Peppino Pea, vende in tutto il mondo attraverso negozi monomarca e concessionari ufficiali. «Da oggi nella compagine sociale, insieme a me e Peppino Pea, mio socio storico, ci saranno due amici che stimo moltissimo e che condivideranno strategie e obiettivi, assicurando all’azienda maggior forza e stabilità. Si tratta di uomini di grande esperienza industriale che ci aiuteranno certamente nel percorso di crescita in un mercato mondiale sempre più attento e selettivo», ha commentato Mantovani.

Locman punta a sviluppare una rete di negozi monomarca, soprattutto all’estero, e a una politica di espansione basata sulla presenza diretta nei principali mercati attraverso strutture di proprietà. In questo percorso sarà valutata a medio termine anche la possibilità di una quotazione in Borsa. Federico Graglia

Per Damiani semestre in bianco e nero

Nel primo semestre dell’anno fiscale 2014/2015 Damiani rivede l’utile lordo. Una nota della società sottolinea «un trend positivo che si protrae ormai da cinque esercizi che testimonia l’apprezzamento sempre crescente del brand da parte del consumatore finale». I ricavi dal canale retail hanno raggiunto il 44,1% dei ricavi da vendite, in ulteriore crescita rispetto al primo semestre dell’esercizio precedente.

Nel corso del primo semestre (che va da marzo a settembre, dato che il bilancio di Damiani si chiude al 31 marzo) l’azienda piemontese, che ha celebrato quest’anno i 90 anni di attività, ha però registrato vendite per 62,1 milioni di euro, rispetto ai 65,0 milioni di euro registrati nell’analogo periodo dell’esercizio precedente, con una variazione negativa del -3,8% a tassi di cambio costanti e del -4,5%, a tassi di cambio correnti. In compenso, l’Ebitda (utile lordo) consolidato è positivo per 100mila euro. Poco, ma sempre meglio del dato negativo di –3 milioni al 30 settembre 2013. Miglioramento merito, continua la nota, «di azioni di riorganizzazione interna». Premesso questo, il risultato operativo consolidato resta negativo, anche se in miglioramento: –2,2 milioni di euro, rispetto ai –4,6 milioni dello scorso anno. In definitiva, nei primi sei mesi il gruppo ha chiuso «con un risultato netto consolidato di competenza negativo e pari a -3,4 milioni di euro rispetto ai -6,1 milioni di euro conseguiti il 30 settembre 2013». Anche i debiti sono cresciuti: la posizione finanziaria è negativa per 47 milioni di euro, rispetto ai 40,8 milioni registrati al 31 marzo scorso. Ma l’azienda fa sapere che «la variazione è principalmente riconducibile alle dinamiche stagionali dei flussi finanziari».

Da registrare anche che nei sei mesi passati Damiani è uscita dal segmento Star di Borsa Italiana. Uno dei motivi è anche la «la riduzione del flottante (cioè delle azioni trattate in Borsa ndr) al di sotto della soglia del 20% del capitale, minimo richiesto per la presenza nel segmento Star e dall’obiettivo di focalizzare la struttura del gruppo sul core business». Damiani resta ancora quotata a Piazza Affari ma le azioni liberamente scambiate si assottigliano. A questo si aggiungono volumi particolarmente elevati negli ultimi giorni. Qualcuno si potrebbe chiedere se, per caso, l’intenzione sia quella di un prossimo addio al listino.

Sempre nel semestre concluso a settembre, l’azienda ha proceduto con la fusione per incorporazione tra Damiani S.p.A. e Rocca S.p.A., «operazione è finalizzata ad assicurare una maggiore funzionalità del Gruppo, sotto il profilo economico e finanziario, e si inserisce nell’ambito delle azioni di riorganizzazione già in gran parte realizzate nei precedenti esercizi».damiani

Damiani, in ogni caso, è molto attiva sul piano del rilancio. Lo scorso ottobre, insieme all’ex calciatore giapponese Hidetoshi Nakata, ha lanciato la nuova collezione Metropolitan Dream by H. Nakata con l’obiettivo di reperire risorse per sostenere il progetto Home for all, lanciato nel 2011 e diretto dall’architetto Toyo Ito, per aiutare le vittime del terremoto che ha colpito il Giappone nel marzo 2011 nella ricostruzione delle città colpite e di migliorare la vita quotidiana della comunità.

Semester in improvement for Damiani

In the first half of fiscal year 2014/2015 Damiani revises the gross profit. A note of the company emphasizes “a positive trend that has lasted for five years testifies to the growing appreciation of the brand by the end consumer.” Revenues from retail channel reached 44.1% of revenues from sales, a further increase over the first half of the previous year.

During the first six months (from March to September, because the financial statements of Damiani closes March 31) the Piedmont company, which this year celebrated 90 years in business, has posted sales of 62.1 million euro, compared to 65.0 million euro in the same period of the previous year, a decrease of -3.8% at constant exchange rates and -4.5% at current exchange rates . On the other hand, Ebitda (gross profit) consolidated is positive for 100 thousand euro. Little, but still better than the negative figure of -3 million at September 30, 2013. The Improvement, a note continues, is the result “of internal reorganization.” That said, the consolidated operating profit remains negative, although improving: -2.2 million euro, compared to 4.6 million last year. Ultimately, in the first six months, the group closed with a consolidated net profit attributable negative and amounted to -3.4 million compared to EUR -6.1 million euro achieved September 30, 2013. Even the debts have grown: the financial position was negative for 47 million euro, compared to 40.8 million recorded at 31 March. But the company says that “the change was mainly due to the seasonal dynamics of financial flows.”

Moreover, in the past six months Damiani left the Star segment of the Italian Stock Exchange. One of the reasons is also the “reduction of the free float (shares traded on the Stock Exchange ndr) below the threshold of 20% of the capital, the minimum required for the presence in the Star segment. The focus is on the structure of the group core business. Damiani is still listed on the stock exchange but the shares freely traded dwindle. Added to this are particularly high volumes in recent days. Someone might wonder if, by chance, the intention is the delisting.

Also in the first half ended in September, the company proceeded with the merger between Damiani SpA and Rocca SpA, “operation aims to ensure greater functionality of the Group, from the economic and financial environment, and is part of the reorganization already largely made in previous years.”

Damiani, in any case, is very active in terms of the relaunch. Last October, together with former Japanese footballer Hidetoshi Nakata, has launched the new collection Metropolitan Dream by H. Nakata with the aim of raising funds to support the project Home for All, launched in 2011 and directed by the architect Toyo Ito, to help victims of the earthquake that hit Japan in March 2011 in the reconstruction of the affected cities and to improve the daily life of the community.

Stroili sarà venduta a un indiano

Published on
Ajay Khaitan

Una notizia clamorosa scuote il mondo del gioiello: Stroili diventa indiana. Secondo quanto scrive il solitamente bene informato Carlo Turchetti sul Corriere Economia, Stroili Oro sta per essere venduta al fondo Emerisque. Si tratta di un fondo fondato e diretto da Ajay Khaitan, indiano con residenza britannica. Il negoziato sarebbe alle fasi conclusive e potrebbe essere portato a termine entro novembre, cioè nel giro di 15 giorni. Il prezzo di acquisto non è ancora noto, ma si parla di una cifra intorno a 300 milioni, più del fatturato (230 milioni). L’indiano Khaitan avrebbe così superato in corsa gli altri due pretendenti della catena di preziosi guidata da Maurizio Merenda, che conta su una distribuzione di 370 negozi. Insomma, gli altri in lizza, il fondo italiano Clessidra di Claudio Sposito, che si avvale dell’esperienza dell’ex amministratore di Bulgari, Francesco Trapani, così come i russi di Vtb, che stanno acquistando Roberto Cavalli, hanno perso la corsa. A vendere sono, ovviamente, i soci di Stroili: il fondo Investindustrial di Andrea Bonomi (che detiene il 31% in via indiretta), Intesa Sanpaolo (12%), 21 Investimenti (cioè i Benetton, con circa 9%) e Wise sgr (circa 9%). A questi, con quote minori, si aggiungono il fondo Ergon, il finanziere Francesco Micheli e i De Nora. Emerisque lo scorso anno ha acquisito da Permira i marchi Mcs. Federico Graglia

In short, the others lost the race: the Italian fund Clessidra of Claudio Sposito, which is helped by the former director of Bulgari, Francesco Trapani, as well as Russia’s VTB fund, that it’s buying Roberto Cavalli. The sellers are, of course, the Stroili shareholders: the fund Investindustrial Andrea Bonomi (which owns 31% indirectly), Intesa Sanpaolo (12%), 21 Investimenti (Benetton group, with about 9%) and Wise SGR (about 9%).

Se i diamanti brillano meno

Published on
anversa diamante

Nel caso vogliate acquistare diamanti, magari come investimento, sappiate che al momento il prezzo è in calo. Ne dà notizia Rapaport, la bibbia dei diamanti lavorati. Il prezzo in calo è determinato da diversi fattori: domanda debole, ridotto credito bancario e aumento dell’offerta. Gli esperti Usa indicano un calo del prezzo dei brillanti da 1 carato nell’ordine del 6% negli ultimi 12 mesi. A questa frenata si sono aggiunte, inoltre, le recenti festività religiose in Israele e in India, che hanno rallentato le vendite. Sempre secondo Rapaport, i prezzi dei diamanti De Beers sono rimasti sostanzialmente stabili, ma la domanda debole dovrebbero influenzare negativamente le quotazioni di mercato nei prossimi mesi. Insomma, si prevedono nuovi ribassi. Anche perché il mercato asiatico sembra tiepido, con segnali di stanchezza. Non è chiaro se la crescita delle vendite durante le vacanze di natale sarà sufficiente per cambiare la situazione: secondo gli esperti americani, per produttori e commercianti la situazione è «preoccupante».

ukIf diamonds sparkle less 

In case you want to buy diamonds, perhaps as an investment, you should know that now the prices are falling. The news is by Rapaport, the Bible of diamonds. The price decrease of polished diamonds are determined by several factors: weak demand, reduced bank lending and increased supply. The US experts indicate a decline in the price of diamonds of 1 carat in the order of 6% in the last 12 months. And this is  added at the recent religious holidays in Israel and India, which have slowed sales. Also according to Rapaport, the De Beers diamond prices have remained fairly stable, but weak demand can would adversely affect the market prices in the coming months. In short, we can wait new markdowns. Also because the Asian market seems tepid, with signs of fatigue. It is not clear if the increase in sales during the Christmas holiday will be enough to change the situation. According to American experts, the situation is “worrisome” for producers and traders.

Falls Sie Diamanten kaufen, vielleicht als eine Investition, sollten Sie wissen, dass nun die Preise fallen wollen. Die Nachricht ist von Rapaport, der Bibel, der Diamanten. Schwache Nachfrage, geringere Kreditvergabe der Banken und erhöhte Versorgung: Der Preisrückgang von geschliffenen Diamanten werden von mehreren Faktoren bestimmt. Die US-Experten zeigen einen Rückgang der Preise von Diamanten von 1 Karat in der Größenordnung von 6% in den letzten 12 Monaten. Und dies ist bei den jüngsten religiösen Feiertage in Israel und Indien, die Verkaufs verlangsamt haben zugegeben. Auch nach Rapaport, haben die De Beers Diamantenpreise relativ stabil geblieben, aber die schwache Nachfrage kann sich nachteilig in den kommenden Monaten die Marktpreise beeinflussen. Kurz gesagt, können wir neue Abschläge warten. Auch, weil der asiatische Markt scheint lauwarm, mit Anzeichen von Müdigkeit. Es ist nicht klar, ob die Umsatzsteigerung während der Weihnachtsfeiertage ausreichen werden, um die Situation zu ändern. Laut US-amerikanischen Experten, ist die Situation “besorgniserregend” für Produzenten und Händler.

В случае, если вы хотите купить бриллианты, возможно, в качестве инвестиций, вы должны знать, что в настоящее время цены падают. Новость по Рапапорт, Библии алмазов. Снижение цен бриллиантов определяются несколькими факторами: низким спросом, снижение банковского кредитования и увеличения предложения. Американские эксперты указывают на снижение цен на алмазы в 1 карат в порядка 6% в течение последних 12 месяцев. И это добавляется в последние религиозных праздников в Израиле и Индии, которые замедлили продаж. Кроме того, согласно Рапапорт, цены на алмазы De Beers остались довольно стабильными, но слабый спрос может отрицательно повлиять на рыночные цены в ближайшие месяцы. Короче говоря, мы можем ждать новых скидок. Также из-за азиатский рынок, кажется прохладной, с признаками усталости. Пока не ясно, если рост продаж в течение Рождества будет достаточно, чтобы изменить ситуацию. По мнению американских экспертов, ситуация “тревожная” для производителей и торговцев.

Y esto se añade a las recientes fiestas religiosas en Israel y la India, que han frenado las ventas. También de acuerdo con Rapaport, los precios de los diamantes De Beers ha mantenido bastante estable, pero la débil demanda se afectarían negativamente a los precios de mercado en los próximos meses. En resumen, podemos esperar nuevas rebajas. También porque el mercado asiático parece tibia, con signos de fatiga. No está claro si el aumento de las ventas durante las vacaciones de Navidad será suficiente para cambiar la situación. Según los expertos estadounidenses, la situación es “preocupante” para los productores y comerciantes.

It is a good business to invest in jewelry

Published on

[wzslider]
Investing in jewelry is a real bargain. Especially in times of economic turbulence, such as what we live for a few years. It supports the Monte dei Paschi di Siena, which has carried out a study on the art market and that of precious metals. The survey analyzes the art market of the MPS market performance of painting, divided into three segments of reference, summarizing the results of the largest transactions of auction houses ( about 1,550 observations total) in three indices according to the period historical reference : MPS Art Old masters and 19th century Index, MPS and MPS Index Art Pre War Post War Art Index. The evidence of the 3 indices are then summarized in the Global MPS Painting Art Index.

But, as anticipated, the discussion does not end here. Experts have also introduced indexes that aim to analyze the trend of so-called minor arts : antiques, furniture and sculptures, jewelry, wine and photography. Within the minor arts, we analyzed the performance of the sector Jewels compared to other minor arts given the particular function as a safe haven covered in this segment.

The most important segment after painting, in fact, is represented by jewelry and watches, whose temples stand out for their high average turnovers and weighs a total of 14.2% of total revenues ( +3.1% compared to the portion of the first half 2010). This segment is expected to grow further by the experts of MPS, especially given the success that the rods of precious stones and are enjoying all the squares on the continent.

Conclusions : The weight between the various segments still seems to be intended to change, with a strengthening of the minor arts that show, in just the last calendar year and in all categories, the best performance in terms of percentage changes compared to the MPS Global Painting Art Index.

The MPS Jewels index summarizes the trend of the auctions of jewelery, watches and precious stones of the most important international centers : Geneva, London, New York and Hong Kong. The segment shows the growth rates of the most interesting segment of the minor arts, with an increase of 160.8 % over the last 5 years ( first half of 2011 over the first half of 2006).

In comparison with the MPS Minor Arts Index Without Jewels ( +71.0 % between 2006 and 2011 ), it is evident success of the jewelery, which at the moment are confirmed safe haven par excellence, with a performance estimate for 2011 +10, 0% (latest data considered in the study ).

The jewelry will also reveal a rather good ‘liquid’, at least for the high quality pieces : the rods considered to show that the branded jewelery or antiques are a safe investment. In addition to diamonds are always very popular natural stones ( untreated) and natural pearls (not cultivated ). The success of the segment can be attributed to two main reasons: 1 ) the jewelry is seen as a safe haven warranty, and 2) the value of the underlying ( gold, silver, diamond… ) has grown significantly in this period of recession.

Of course, it is not automatically sell a gem, but no more than a painted picture. The unsold rates recorded in the last five semesters, note analysts Sienese bank, settle in the region of the five-year average rates ( average rate per lot 21.4%, 17.6% by value ), and below the peaks achieved in 2008 : the market in the last two years seems to have found a sustainable balance for supply and demand.

Compared to the past, the demand for precious focuses more on top quality diamonds, colored stones with particular as to the Burmese rubies, Kashmir sapphires and for the Colombian (Muso ) for emeralds.

On the square in New York are appreciated especially great carat white diamonds, as well as large colored stones and colored diamonds. The jewels of the ’20s and ’50s are very welcome in both the old and the new continent. The UK market is more geared towards the cushion cut diamonds for their particular for their luster and charm. In Italy is more and more interest in the vintage jewelry, thanks to a consolidated goldsmith tradition that has produced manufacturing, design and proportions of high quality. The signatures, known internationally, they add value to the jewel with exquisite designs and a perfect bill.

There are, finally, advice for those who decide to embark on an investment in diamonds. It is necessary, experts explain, evaluate the so-called 4 C’s : color ( color), purity ( Clarity ), cut ( Cut) and carat ( Carat ). Not to be overlooked, moreover, proportions, fluorescence and polishing.

The market for fine jewelry is synthesized in a series of graphs. The performance of the MPS Jewels Market Value Index in the entire observation period (September 2008 – September 2011) is quite positive ( +63.5 %) and superior to other national stock indices considered, all in negative territory : SMI ( -4, 9%), CAC 40 ( -36.7 %) ** and FTSE MIB ( -54.5 %) with the exception of S & P 500 ( +2.7%).

The investment in the stock market jewel of luxury appears to be the only positive with respect to the major indices which are representative of 4 -contributing countries, with their society, the definition of MPS Jewels Market Value Index ( Damiani and Bvlgari for Italy, LVMH, Hermès and Dior for France to Switzerland Richemont and Tiffany & Co. for the United States ).

Be careful, though : the dangers out there. The segment of the jewel of luxury, the study continues, it is subjected to numerous threats : 1 ) increasingly strong interest in substitute goods to meet the psycho – physical (eg, travel, spas, gyms, etc. ), 2) increased demand for the productions of the fashion industry, especially by younger people, attracted by prices less prohibitive and innovative features, and 3) preference for fashion products than for products – value ; 4) strong seasonality of sales in some periods of the year ( for jewelry Christmas and Valentine’s Day ), 5 ) the risk of counterfeiting; 6) reputational risk ( for example, when the production is decentralized abroad ) ; 7) change in consumer tastes, often sudden and unreasoned.

The high rates of unemployment and the levels of tax rates in emerging markets are factors that can influence demand. Moreover, the products of the luxury market have good nature of secondary ones, which makes them susceptible to the macroeconomic environment and require a constant upgrading and re-launching the brand.

This is also why in recent months the performance of MPS Jewels Market Value Index was affected by the difficulties in the financial markets ( -20.5 %), but were also negative performance of all other indices ranging from -31.9 % of FTSE MIB to -10.7% for the S & P500.

On the overall performance of the MPS Jewels Market Value Index, however, have impacted primarily LVMH ( -19% approx. ) And Richemont (-23% approx. ) Which together account for about 70%. the entire index.

Little significant effect on the growth performance of the title Bulgari (+50% approx. ) Following the tender offer launched by LVMH, because of its limited weight on the aggregate (4.5% approx. ).
