The Rapaport Diamond Podcast ushers in the New Year with a review of the holiday season and some bold predictions for the year ahead.

Is this the year of retail refurbishment? Will rough buying become more demand driven? How is De Beers relating to sightholders going into lab-grown? Will John stick to his fitness regime and Sonia to her goal of being more mindful? And will Billy Porter steal the show again at this years’ Academy Awards?

The Rapaport team explores these and many other pressing issues affecting the diamond trade in Episode 21 of the podcast.
