Dow Jones News
--De Beers reduced prices on lower-quality diamonds at a sale
this week, Bloomberg News reported.
--The report said shares of Tiffany & Co. (TIF) and Signet
Jewelers Ltd. (SIG) declined after news of the price cuts
emerged.
--Industry buyers had to commit to quotas for the year after De
Beers took the rare step of allowing customers to opt out of buying
some lower-quality stones in September, Bloomberg reported. This
week's price cut will help them buy their allocation, the report
said.
