Where is The World's Second Largest Diamond Market?

Reuters reports today that due to its excellent economic growth which increased by 8.7%, China has overtaken Japan to become the world's second largest diamond market behind the United States with trade on the Shanghai diamond exchange rising 16.4 per cent to more than US$1.5 billion.



China's increasingly affluent middle class and vast pool of customers are the key factors for the rise in diamond sales in the world's most populous country.


Demand for diamonds only really started to develop in the 1990s when De Beers brought its global advertising campaign to China, tapping into the Chinese desire for conspicuous consumption and pursuit of Western lifestyle trends.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.
