Is platinum or diamond better?

While high quality diamonds cost more per kg, platinum is a better investment. Platinum is more valuable in an absolute sense since it is rarer, more useful, and more fungible than diamonds. The price of diamonds is currently much higher than it should be due diamond monopolies and high retail mark-up. When the market recognizes that diamonds are actually quite common, the price of diamonds will plummet.
