(IDEX Online News) – The trend of downward price movement continued for round goods once again this week. Overall, however, there seemed to be less shifting, with a number of categories maintaining the status quo from last week.

 

There was also less movement in the price of fancy goods, with almost all of it trending to the positive. Some categories saw price increases of as much as 5 percent. The very few price declines took place primarily in items above 2 carats in size.

           

Following are some of the main changes in this week's IDEX Online Diamond Price Report.
