If you want to invest in jadeite and cash it in for appreciation, you’re thinking too much.

A Ms. Wang recently sent me a private message saying that she spent 36,000 yuan to buy a piece of jade two months ago and asked me how much its value has appreciated now?

As shown in the picture, it is a large melon with an icy and clear background. At that time, the salesperson told her that jade can appreciate in value. You see, this kind of jade was only worth a few thousand yuan a few years ago, but now it is worth tens of thousands of yuan. It will continue to appreciate in the future, and the more you dig, the less of this thing will be. Once it is gone, it is gone. During the epidemic, digging was not allowed, which caused jade to begin to appreciate significantly again. During the epidemic, investing in jade appreciated much faster than gold.

Ms. Wang owns several houses and is well-off. She was looking to invest in something to increase its value. The salesperson's words struck a chord with her, and after a series of bargaining, she ended up buying the jade for 36,000 yuan.

Objectively speaking: the quality of this jade is pretty good. But it is definitely not something that costs 36,000 yuan, it is just over 10,000 yuan, or even several thousand yuan. There is definitely room for jade to appreciate in value, there is no need to doubt it. But people often overlook one issue: the premium space for jade is very high. Something that costs only a few dozen dollars can be sold to you for hundreds or thousands, and something that costs only a few thousand dollars can be sold to you for tens of thousands. This is like you go to buy gold. The current market price of gold is 385 yuan per gram. The salesperson tells you that gold will appreciate in value, and it is okay for you to buy more, as it will definitely appreciate in value. However, when you bought it, it was at 500 yuan per gram. I think everyone understands this.

So it’s not that jade doesn’t appreciate in value, but that you bought it at such a high price. It will naturally not appreciate in value in the short term, but will depreciate. I would like to advise everyone: don’t buy jade from three sources: don’t buy it from shopping malls, don’t buy it from tourist attractions, and don’t buy it from unreliable sources.
