    Well I haven't seen the Forbes article but you can get the full write
    up about the statistics at The bls.gov site.Look under Jewelers and
    Precious Stone and Metal Workers. 

    My take on the subject is that new workers of the trade will be in
    high demand because of people retiring in the trade.Taking this into
    consideration the decline will be prevail-ant because more people 
will
    be retiring than beginning into the trade.I think a high demand for
    education in the trade will be the key to successive growth if it is
    met with equal force from people who teach the many aspects of it. 
Our
    industry goes through it's morphing stage as time and people
    change.As for manufactured mass quantities of jewelry,there will be a
    significant demand for repair of them in future times. 

    There's alot to be understood about the future of our trade.Anyway
    that's part of my two cents for today.
