Steady US retail demand supported the trade, but dealer activity was sluggish amid price uncertainty, Chinese lockdowns and Russian sanctions. The RapNet Diamond Index (RAPI?,,?) for 1-carat diamonds fell 3.2% during the month, reversing the uptrend of the first quarter. The 1-carat index has increased 9.8% since the beginning of the year.
