I am looking to diversify my portfolio and I am thinking of getting some investment diamonds which we will keep for 5-10 years. The original plan was to get 3 fancy intense/vivid pink or blue stones, as those colours constantly seem to be increasing. The sizes will approximately be 0.50ct-0.70ct. However, I think it may be better to only get 2 fancy pink/blue stone then purchasing another 1-2 white stones for better liquidity instead of a 3rd pink.
It will all be purchased at wholesale/trade prices so there will be no retail mark up, however I was just wondering what people's advice would be? I appreciate that it will take long to sell the 2 fancy color stones however that is why I am trying to diversify it by investing in 1-2 white colour stones so if I ever need the funds, then it should be easier to liquidate the 3 white stones.
Also, can I ask which white stones tend to give the best returns? I am thinking of looking at 2ct Internally Flawless/VVS1 stones, as I am thinking of getting anything which is more premium/rare as opposed to 1ct VVS's or VS's which are abundant.
