سوق الألماس، Week 13, 2026
23 to 30 March 2026
The number that stops me cold this week is the price-per-carat figure. $987.50, the first time the market-wide median has broken below $1,000 in this seven-week window, and down 8% from last week's $1,073.85. Over the full window it's fallen 34%, from $1,492 in week seven. That's not noise. Total active inventory hit a new record of 27.7 million stones, up nearly 9% week on week, and new listings surged 83% to 3.65 million for the period. When supply expands that fast, price-per-carat tends to feel it. This week, it did.
Lab-grown is driving the volume story, and the numbers are stark. Lab-grown new listings more than doubled week on week, up 101% to 2.85 million, pushing lab-grown's share of total active inventory to 65.3%, a record for this window. The median price-per-carat for lab-grown stones fell to $532, down 33% from last week's $797. That's the compositional drag pulling the market-wide figure below $1,000: more lab, and cheaper lab, arriving faster than it's leaving. Natural stones are a different story. Their median listing price rose 25% to $1,811 and price-per-carat climbed to $2,474, up roughly 11%. Natural new listings grew 36% but off-market natural volumes actually fell slightly. The two origin segments are moving in genuinely opposite directions right now.
The cross-retailer overlap and spread figures are worth sitting with. Overlap reached 48.5%, another record, meaning nearly half of all active stones appear across multiple retailers simultaneously. The median spread between the cheapest and most expensive listing for the same stone hit 92.7%, also a record for this window. These two moving together tells you something about how the supply glut is playing out: the same inventory is being listed more widely, and the pricing discipline across those listings is loosening. Buyers willing to shop across retailers are finding meaningful differences on identical stones. That spread has widened from 63.5% in week seven. Not a trivial shift.
Shape pricing was mixed but a couple of moves stand out. Rounds ticked up 14% to a median of $1,005 on very high volume, 1.32 million new listings, a 36% share of all new stock. Ovals followed with a 12% gain to $1,100. Cushions dropped 8% to $1,530 and trillions fell nearly 16% to $786, though trillion volumes are thin enough (under 5,000 new listings) that one read shouldn't be over-interpreted. The "other" shape category showed a wild median swing to $2,813, but that's a small, heterogeneous bucket and almost certainly a compositional artefact rather than a genuine pricing move.
Off-market listings also hit a seven-week record at 1.38 million, which is notable context. Inventory is piling up, but stones are also cycling out at a pace not seen earlier in this window. That turnover, combined with the surge in new supply, suggests the market is churning rather than simply accumulating. Whether that resolves into a price floor or continued compression is the question worth watching heading into week 14. If lab-grown supply keeps arriving at this rate and natural stones continue to hold or gain, the gap between those two segments will widen further, and the market-wide median will keep telling a story that is really two very different stories averaged together.

Median price per carat across every active listing we tracked, plotted across the trailing periods so you can see whether the market is trending up, down, or flat going into 23 to 30 March 2026.

Total active diamond listings being tracked over time. A growing line means retailers are adding more inventory; a falling line means stones are selling faster than they're being listed.

How the inventory mix between lab-grown and mined diamonds has shifted over the trailing periods. Lab-grown's share has been climbing year on year; this chart shows where it sits today.

Median price movement for diamonds in each carat tier during 23 to 30 March 2026. Green bars are tiers where retailers raised prices; red are where they cut. Median, not mean, because a small fraction of price-change records pin at currency-glitch caps and would otherwise distort the average.

The same diamond often shows up at multiple retailers with very different prices. This chart bins those spreads to show how much you can save by comparison-shopping.
