Women
When shopping is considered, women manages the purse strings of America. It has been evaluated that women influence about 95% of all purchase decisions made in the U.S., and they indeed make nearly 85% of those purchases by themselves.

Today’s American woman not only has control of her household’s expenditure, but she also has most of her own desirable income than ever before, particularly in households with two wage earners.

Self-Purchasers
At present, nearly two-thirds of jewelry sales in America are related to particular annual calendar events. For instance, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, and Christmas are important calendar selling seasons for jewelers. Shoppers also purchase jewelry to commemorate birthdays, anniversaries, and other important milestone events. These sales are handled by an external lifestyle event which usually happens annually.

Only about one third of all jewelry sold for an occasion is not related to a specific calendar period. These special occasions are usually a reward for obtaining a bonus or a promotion. Moreover, jewelry is sometimes purchased for no specific occasion. For instance, women just finds a piece of jewelry attractive enough to purchase it for themselves.

Trend Of Jewelry Producer Price Index (JPPI)

Darrel Harminson — Sun, 10 May 2009 06:57:54 +0000

U.S Jewelry Producer Price Index (JPPI) increased by a very limited 0.8 percent in April 2009, as per the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). This was considered as one of the smallest improvements in the past two years. Moreover, it was hardly above the very little gains for January and February +0.3 percent and +0.6 percent respectively. It was little above the revised 0.1 percent rise for March (the BLS first estimated that March’s JPPI was +1.0 percent, but newly revised figures show it to be far below).

The April JPPI was far lower than the Jewelry Producer Price Index for 2008, which exceeded at +6.3 percent for the complete year. The 0.8 percent increase in April is just above the annual inflation rate, that equated to nearly 0.7 percent and represented the jewelry producer industry in 2000 through 2002, a recessionary period. It mainly gives relatively stable valuable metals prices. April’s inflation rate is well lower than the long term Jewelry Producer Price Index increase of nearly 1.4-1.5 percent annually.
