For most investors, 10% to 25% of an investment portfolio allocated to long-term Fancy Color Diamonds is considered a prudent and effective range. Investment-grade diamonds are commodities, and as such, provide diversification benefits and act as an inflation hedge over longer holding periods.

Typical Allocation Ranges


  • Conservative portfolio: 5–8% in commodities.

  • Moderate portfolio: 8–15% in commodities, possibly mixing various commodity sectors for diversification.

  • Aggressive or inflation-hedged portfolios: Up to 15–25% in Fancy Color Diamond Investments.

  • Recent professional studies and portfolio optimization models often land around 6–10% as the efficient long-term range for the average investor, with some advocating for higher allocations (10–25%) in high-inflation or commodity “super cycle” environments.


Key Considerations


  • Commodities tend to offer low or negative correlation to both equities and bonds, improving risk-adjusted returns over time.

  • Allocating too little (less than 4%) reduces the diversification and inflation-hedging effect.

  • Investment Diamonds grow in value over longer periods of time.

  • ​Adjust allocations for personal risk tolerance, investment horizon, and long-term inflation outlook.
