Deploying dry powder on a down day, definitely diamonds!
I've always been a fan picking up some deals on the clearance rack (and also alliteration as a literary device, in case you couldn't tell). A Tiff & Co. favorite, North Arrow Minerals' stunning yellow diamonds are "rarer than rare". Power couple Beyoncé & Jay-Z can be seen wearing the gems for the chain's marketing campaign. Tiff & Co. has seen North Arrow's cut & polished stones and is said to have liked them, and it's important to note that North Arrow's CEO has prior experience with the luxury retailer.
I'm a firm believer in following teams that have a proven track record, and you can't ask for much better than NAR backers Lukas Lundin, Ross Beaty, and Electrum (Thomas Kaplan). Lucara CEO Eira Thomas is an advisor on the project, as well as a significant shareholder. North Arrow's chairman, Gren Thomas, discovered the Diavik diamond deposit in the 1990's while he was with Aber Resources. Aber's shares went from dimes to more than $50 at the peak. In the early 2000's, a unique North American diamond alliance was created as Tiffany made a $104 million equity investment in Aber.
According to leading global diamond industry expert Paul Zimnisky, diamond fundamentals are exceptional. Demand is surging & many mines have closed with few new discoveries globally, with exploration for new deposits at its lowest in over 30 years. Rough diamond prices rose ~34% in 2021.
2022 should have see significant milestones & catalysts for North Arrow.
