The market is about to collapse but you are still holding on to it. Is it better to collect jadeite than to speculate in stocks and real estate?

I still remember that when I was a child, the price of jade was affordable for us ordinary people. Nowadays, the price of a top-grade jade ring may be equal to that of a house or a car.

According to statistics, Myanmar's jade exports in 2013 reached three times that of the previous year, reaching approximately US$1 billion. This figure is equivalent to 10% of the country's total exports, 90% of which are exported to China. As the economy grows, China's purchasing desire continues to increase, and many "jade tycoons" have emerged among Myanmar's retailers.

In the 1920s, the Burmese military government, which was severely isolated by the international community due to economic sanctions from Europe and the United States, turned to China. In northern Myanmar, China's large-scale reservoir development and construction has started, and the entry of Chinese companies is also accelerating. After democratization in the spring of 2011, Myanmar has continued to improve its relations with Japan and EU countries and built a large-scale jade trading market in Shan State in the northeast, near the border. The medium and large-scale trading markets built in Mandalay also have commercial facilities mainly for jade trading.

Burmese jade is abbreviated as Burmese jade. More than 95% of the commercial grade jade on the market comes from Myanmar. Jade is also called Burmese jade, so Burmese jade is used as a synonym for jade. Jadeite is produced in Japan, Russia, Mexico, California, the United States and other places, but its quality and output are far inferior to Myanmar.

The color of Burmese jadeite varies slightly due to different regional customs. In Myanmar, the kingdom of jade, jadeite is divided into three categories and 12 grades. The domestic jewelry industry divides it into more than 30 grades according to the different colors of the emerald. Especially the green color of Burmese jade, not only is its bright color and very pleasing to the eye, it can be worn by anyone regardless of identity, status, age, or gender. Therefore, it is in line with the Chinese people's reserved, peaceful, gentle and friendly character.

Jade prices soar

In recent years, the price of jade has risen dramatically. The price of mountain jade is currently as high as hundreds of thousands of yuan per kilogram, which has increased several times compared to 2008, not to mention the water jade. In 2008, one gram of seed material cost 2,000 to 3,000 yuan, but now it has doubled to tens of thousands of yuan.

Fine jade is scarce

Jade is a non-renewable resource. After generations of pursuit of jade and hundreds of years of mining, it has become extremely scarce. In particular, fine jade ore is becoming increasingly difficult to find. It can be said to be a true "rare treasure."

Fashion Jade Growth

New products are constantly emerging, a large number of fashionable new jade products are flooding the market, and gold-inlaid jade and various inlaid series products are rising wildly.

The brand era is coming

In today's society, the jade market is a mixed bag, and more and more people are choosing regular brands. This also means that the jade industry can only survive by operating in a branded manner.

Increasing value

As the king of jade, it has a profound cultural heritage and has been passed down for thousands of years. Today's high-quality mineral sources are becoming increasingly scarce. From the perspective of culture and its own characteristics, it is inevitable that the value of jadeite will continue to rise.

Celebrity collections attract attention

In recent years, jade has appeared in the public eye with a strong momentum, more and more people have poured into the jade industry, and more and more people have chosen jade. Due to its long history and profound cultural value, jadeite, as the jewelry of ancient emperors and royal families, has become a trendy item embraced by many celebrities because of its mysterious temperament and increasing value. As its value continues to appreciate steadily, jade is not only an ordinary ornament, but also the most advantageous collectible investment jewel.

Fine carving art appreciation

Jadeite, as the king of jade, has always been the primary collection item for jade lovers because of its unique origin and high quality. Artworks carved from raw jade products are high-end regulars at major auctions and have become the first choice of many collectors. When raw materials are extremely scarce, the value of finely carved artworks increases exponentially, directly affecting the market value of jadeite.

Investment and financial management become the focus

Although compared with other investments, jade is more suitable for long-term investment. Although top-grade jadeite is a relatively high investment, its visible stable appreciation potential and rapid appreciation rate make it the focus of investment and financial management.

Internet marketing spreads widely

Since the franchise chain entered China, countless industries have seen business opportunities and have chosen to operate under the franchise model, achieving remarkable success. An advanced and advantageous business model is the foundation for the development of a brand or even an industry. Based on this, more and more brands in the jade industry are operating using the franchise chain model.

High-end trend is obvious

As the jade industry has developed to the present day, the value of mid- and low-end products and high-end products has become increasingly polarized, and more people have realized the importance of jade quality. High-end jade has increased in value year by year and has huge appreciation potential, making it the investment of choice for many people.

Jade City is expanding significantly

With the rapid development of the jade industry, more and more jade cities with jade as the main sales substance are emerging, and the market regulation effect on the value of jade is gradually reflected. Taking Beijing as an example, new professional jade malls are opened almost every year, and the expansion is obvious.

The time to buy is now

Many people regret not buying jade earlier when they see it appreciate so quickly. Compared with the unpredictable price growth rate in the future and the mixed bag of jade market in the past, the current jade market is gradually getting on the right track, forming a relatively orderly market mechanism, and more and more jade merchants are moving towards brand management.

Rough stone prices soar

Compared with finished jade products, the price of jade raw stones has increased rapidly. The value of high-quality jadeite raw stones is appreciating rapidly at a rate of almost ten times per year.

At present, the price of jade has returned to a more rational level. In a short period of time, the price of jade will tend to stabilize and will no longer fluctuate too much. This is also a good time to collect jade.
