Michael Anthony Jewelers Inc., the biggest gold jewelry manufacturer in the
U.S., has slowed such borrowing as lease rates rose.



I don't even like the firm although that is not the point. I assume they lease the gold to supply finished goods to their "customers" with credit terms. It would appear a reduction in their leasing would reduce the amount of issued credit which would slow sales. Unless their customers are not liquid, it makes no sense to me.
