Home Depot (HD) is facing significant headwinds due to rising interest rates, which have dampened the housing market and reduced renovations typically funded through loans. Analysts express skepticism over its immediate recovery potential, citing challenges such as inflation linked to the US-Iran war and disappointing quarterly results. However, some experts note that Home Depot remains a dominant player in the home improvement sector with a strong market position and potential for long-term recovery. Many agree that consistent interest rate cuts would be crucial for a turnaround in its fortunes, despite the challenges presented by high mortgage rates and housing turnover issues. The company's strategic expansions into various segments and e-commerce improvements may provide some optimism for future growth amidst the current pressures.

TRADE
As long as the American Economy continues to grow, it's a decent buy.
BUY
Just added to their portfolio. Told caller to definitly hold on to what he had.
BUY
The whole home improvement sector has been under pressure because of worries that the housing boom is going to implode. Resale homes are at record levels so doesn't think the renovation trend has come to an end. The stock has probably been oversold.
DON'T BUY
The hurricanes didn't seem to have much effect on them. The parts of the US affected is only a small part of their operations. What they really have to worry about is housing starts and home renovations and competition.
DON'T BUY
The hurricane disaster is already reflected in the share price. The stock has gone nowhere for at least a year.
TOP PICK
Over the long term, this can continue to grow. Just symptomatic of what's going on in the market place, people putting a lot more money into their homes. Continues to execute. Raising the average ticket price. Getting more into the installation. Trying to get closer to contractors.
WEAK BUY
Has been firming up recently. Home builders continue to perform really well. There seems to be a fair bit of real investment dollars flowing towards the larger cap growth oriented companies. If you own, keep an eye on housing stocks such as KB Home (KBH-N) D R Horton (DHI-N), etc.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 21/05. Up 8.5%.) His worry on this stock has to do with the US housing market. Just starting to see signs of that market starting to cool off.
BUY
Was overvalued, so had a pull back. Well managed. A good entry price.
TOP PICK
A contraversial pick as a lot of people think the building and renovation boom is on its last leg. Probably the best management in its space. Have gone into the contracting business and are expanding into Mexico. They have potential to really grow this company.
TOP PICK
Stock has been weak. As rates have been rising, people are worried about a housing slowdown. Their volumes have not been directly with new home sales, but with transactions. Good management. Churns out roughly $3 billion in cash flow. Trades at 14 X earnings. Sees it growing at 10% over the next couple of years.
DON'T BUY
A typical consumer growth/staple in the US in that it's (even in US $'s) went up a little and now has come off a bit. So big now that the growth is less than the P/E multiple and the P/E being 20'sh even with low rates doesn't offer much upside. Would prefer something smaller.
BUY
In the midst of a restructuring. They may be able to keep a leg up in a bit of a downmarket by pursuing restructuring. Changing spaces to be more friendly to women which has paid off. Moving into appliances.
BUY
like it. Expansion to Mexico has potential. Expansion to contracting services/hardware/building supplies has potential. Quarter was good. Would hold up to $45.
HOLD
Fell below the 200 day moving average in '03. We are now in a bull market and is above its 200 day moving average. Sitting on fairly good support. Use $38 as your stop/loss level.
