The Aging Jewelry Consumer

Every 24 hours for the next 19 years

an average of 10,000 boomers will turn 65



The demographic bulge of the 70-million-some boomers has driven U.S. economic and market trends in each decade since World War II. They powered the housing market for much of that period, inspired an explosion of brand-name consumer goods and, in the 1980s and '90s, helped stoke the greatest stock bull move of all time. Today they are an ever-expanding gray shadow on the national landscape.
