A Defining Moment in Diamond History<\/span><\/h2>\n

An electric silence, charged with intensity, settled over the Asscher Diamond workshop in Amsterdam.\u00a0 Joseph Asscher confidently laid the steel cleaving blade on the surface of the world’s largest diamond – the Cullinan Diamond. Weeks of planning and preparation\u00a0had led to this moment. With a deep breath, Joseph Asscher raised the hammer, striking the blade with a resounding crack that\u00a0sounded like a thunderclap. A collective gasp surged through the room, a lightning bolt of disbelief, as those gathered realized the blade had shattered, and the stone remained unyielding and intact.<\/p>\n

The Second Strike and a Lasting Legacy<\/span><\/h2>\n

Undeterred by the initial failure, Joseph revised his plan, carefully studying the stone and furthering his preparation work.\u00a0 Several weeks later, his second attempt at cleaving the massive gem was a complete success. The Cullinan Diamond would eventually be cut into nine major stones and 96 smaller ones, securing the Asscher family’s place in history<\/p>\n

The Science of Sparkle<\/span><\/h2>\n

Marcel Tolkowsky, an engineer fascinated with the physics of light, would have been too young to have been in attendance that day in 1905.\u00a0 Raised by a family of gem setters and diamond cutters, he would have heard the story told and retold. Thirteen years later he would tell his own\u00a0story and turn the diamond-cutting world on its head – literally writing the book on diamond cutting (Diamond Design).\u00a0 source:\u00a0https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Marcel_Tolkowsky<\/a><\/p>\n

When Art Meets Science<\/span><\/h2>\n

Driven by ambition and a fascination with light, he sought to optimize the beauty of diamonds by marrying art and science. His cut radiated light making the stone dazzling and captivating.\u00a0 As he emerged on the scene with his groundbreaking scientific approach, the winds of change began to blow through the diamond district.<\/p>\n

The years that followed saw the rise of Marcel Tolkowsky’s modern round brilliant cut.\u00a0 It now accounts for over 70% of the annual cut diamonds and his methods are still used by the Royal Asscher Diamond Company.<\/p>\n

Diamonds, Disruption, and Determination<\/span><\/h2>\n

I love this story.\u00a0 It is the story of every industry of every entrepreneur and of every craftsman.\u00a0 It’s your story and my story: opportunity, risk, setback, determination, triumph, technology and change.\u00a0 The work of the diamond cutter and polisher is so appropriate for investors – especially today.<\/p>\n

Much like the diamond cutters of the past, investors today face a myriad of challenges and uncertainties. Globalism, the dominant world order for the past 50 years, is under great strain. War, inflation, recession, and disruptive technology threaten our ways of life. Joseph Asscher’s determination and Marcel Tolkowsky’s innovative spirit serve as inspiring examples for investors navigating these tumultuous times.<\/p>\n

Survival and Resilience<\/span><\/h2>\n

No one could have imagined in 1905 that the mighty Asscher family would be rounded up by the Germans and sent to concentration camps.\u00a0 Only 10 family members and 15 of 500 employees would survive .\u00a0 And yet they did.\u00a0 With careful planning, precise cutting and patient polishing.\u00a0 Planning, cutting and polishing.\u00a0 source:\u00a0https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Royal_Asscher_Diamond_Company<\/a><\/p>\n

The lesson for investors?\u00a0 Gratefulness.\u00a0 Humility and determination.\u00a0 The crowd in the workshop in Amsterdam focused on the diamond.\u00a0 Joseph focused on his plan and process, regrouped and literally struck again.\u00a0\u00a0As investors, our job is to plan, to cut, and to polish.<\/p>\n

Plan. Cut. Polish.<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you don’t have a financial plan, we can help you make one. Sometimes we have to cut positions and make the hard choices to make your portfolio “sparkle.” Most of the time, we have to polish, removing scratches and imperfections, and updating the plan to make sure you stay on track.<\/p>\n

Resilience is the Real Sparkle<\/span><\/h2>\n

In the face of today’s challenges, investors can find motivation from the story of Joseph Asscher and Marcel Tolkowsky. Their relentless determination and adaptability in the midst of adversity serve as an inspiring testament to the resilience of the human spirit. By learning from their experiences, we can cultivate a strategic mindset, make well-informed decisions, and persevere in our pursuit of financial security and success, regardless of the obstacles we encounter along the way.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Plan, cut, polish – that’s what we do.<\/p>\n
