Is jade investment worthwhile? Should you invest in jade?

Jadeite, the king of jade, itself contains profound cultural heritage and has been passed down for thousands of years. Since jade has the traditional Chinese function of conveying moral truths, the shapes and patterns of its products reflect the best wishes of the Chinese people and are a concrete manifestation of China's blessing culture. At present, high-quality jade mines are becoming increasingly scarce. From a cultural and intrinsic characteristic perspective, the value of jade will increase day by day. As it shows an increasingly steady appreciation in value, jade is not only an ordinary jewel, but also the most advantageous and best collectible investment product.

At present, the jade market is in a period of game. On the one hand, the price of raw materials has skyrocketed; on the other hand, the price of finished products has not dared to rise sharply for the time being due to considerations of market acceptance. Once this bargaining period is over, it is certain that the price of finished products will increase by the same amount as the price of raw materials.

Some people think that the price of jade is too high now and there is no room for investment. For example, in 1990, glass-type jadeite cost only 100 yuan per kilogram, and in 1995, it was about 10,000 yuan per kilogram. Now the price is getting higher and higher. According to judgment, since the resource is non-renewable, the price per kilogram may rise to hundreds of thousands of yuan or even higher. Jade is different from houses. No one can predict when its price will be the highest. In this sense, it doesn’t matter when jade investment is the most expensive; the key is timing. The Myanmar Jade Public Auction undoubtedly provides the possibility for another wave of best market conditions for jade investment.

China has become the world's largest jade consumption market. According to incomplete statistics from the industry, China's annual demand for raw jade and processing volume are nearly 10,000 tons, and the scale of expansion is on an upward trend. At present, China's finished jade sales account for more than 70% of the world's total, and its jade processing volume accounts for more than 80% of the world's total. Moreover, due to the successive downturns in the stock market and real estate, the jade market will be one of the main investment directions for idle capital in society across the country.

The formation and structural changes of the jewelry consumption market are closely related to the economic development of a region and the renewal of consumption concepts. The population structure and social and cultural environment also affect jewelry consumption concepts and jewelry consumption. As jade jewelry meets the psychological needs and emotional value demands of consumers, the demand for jade jewelry will continue to rise.

With the development of China's economy, a large number of high-income people have investment needs and demand for upgraded gifts. Jade has become an indispensable part of contemporary people's pursuit of material life because of its unique value preservation and appreciation potential.

Over the past 30 years, jade has appreciated by an average of 30% to 50% each year, with some special quality jadeite appreciating even more. Therefore, under strong inflation expectations, it is very suitable for long-term investment. Currently, more and more investors are turning their attention to investment and collection of jadeite, which has greater potential for preserving and increasing value.

China has had the custom of appreciating, worshipping and collecting jade since ancient times. Jade items with auspicious and evil-repelling properties are applied to figures, animals, flowers, birds, and some texts. Folk legends and myths are also used as themes. With the help of metaphors, similes, puns, symbols, homophones and other expressive techniques, a pattern is formed, which is given auspicious meaning. Auspicious language is used to express the inner feelings, and people's pursuit of happiness, longevity, joy and peace are placed on their beautiful wishes. Confucius, the most holy teacher, endowed jade with the "five virtues" to represent the beauty of humanity, and attached the warm and smooth stone to represent the highest state of being a human being. The Chinese nation's custom of using and worshipping jade is one of the driving forces behind the continued development of the jade market.

As the saying goes: "A person takes care of jade for three years, and jade takes care of the person for a lifetime." The ancients believed that jade was the essence of heaven and earth and was the best at storing "qi". Modern science believes that the trace elements in jade are beneficial to human health. Jade is very rich in minerals and beneficial trace elements. If worn for a long time, it can be absorbed by the human body. The photoelectricity generated by jade can also dredge the meridians and regulate physiological functions. Long-term wearing can not only please the body and mind, but also has a certain effect on health.

In other words, the chemical components in jade can compensate for the human body, which is beneficial to enhance immunity, improve metabolic function, thereby improving physical and mental health, and playing a preventive and strengthening role. Its mechanism is similar to that of popular magnetic therapy tablets, health watches, fitness balls, etc.

Nowadays, due to the decrease in jade production and the increase in demand, the value of jade is constantly rising, and the increase is far higher than the prices of gold and real estate that many investors are optimistic about. Moreover, jade has a rich cultural heritage and health-preserving functions, which can satisfy people's pursuit of beauty and health. Jade products have huge potential for value preservation and appreciation, and the investment risk is relatively small, so they can be a good choice for investors in a sluggish market.
