Touche on the writedowns but I have not kept track of carat prices so I wouldn't know if that is the reason or not.

Yes the diamonds were small. Not 3mm but .315 mm and .5mm - that is one half of a mm.

Second Debeers does deals with companies to keep their diamonds OFF the market. The worst thing that could happen to debeers is for a lot of diamonds to come onto the market.

A deal with debeers is the kiss of death. Better for a company to team with anybody else.

I know the odds are against this company and other diamond companies. That is why the payoff is so big.

I will tell you something that will make you feel good after I buy some stock on tuesday.
