Home Depot (HD-N) is facing significant challenges this year, being down about 15% amid rising interest rates, which has adversely affected housing activities. Reviewers express concerns regarding the company's earnings outlook, particularly in light of a tumultuous quarter overshadowed by the ongoing US-Iran conflict and high inflation. Despite these hurdles, some reviews indicate a potential for recovery if interest rates stabilize and mortgage rates decrease. Home Depot remains a dominant player in the home improvement sector, with strengths in e-commerce and market share expansion, though the current environment is affecting consumer spending and housing renovations. Analysts maintain a cautious yet hopeful stance, suggesting that the stock could be viewed as a long-term buy if interest rates begin to fall.
(Market Call Minute) wonderful job on restructuring company for the renovation market.
Gordon ReidOne of the largest home improvement retailers. Well run company that is trimming up their operations, selling off some. Only issue is that it is expensive at 22x PE. Tail winds that are benefiting them are already priced in. Good management and good opportunities with macro themes going on at the moment.
In the near-term, this company will benefit from some of the rebuilding efforts due to the super storm Sandy. Longer-term you have improving housing market and demographics such as aging of homes. Under Obama you’ve got low interest rates going forward. You are looking at about a 15% long-term annual growth rate and this should lift given that the housing market does seem to be getting some traction.
Stan WongThis is an indirect way to play housing recovery in the US and improving employment and consumer sentiment and consumption. Has executed very well in spite of the weak US consumer spending. Have been improving margins. Have been buying back stock and increasing dividends. She would like to see it below $50 before buying.

(A Top Pick Feb 15/12. Up 48.65%.) A play on the improving housing market. Very well managed. Used the downturn to really improve their business. Distribution centers are much, much more efficient. Getting a little bit fully priced but the organic growth available will allow the stock price to drive forward.
