COMMENT
A little concerned. Retail has benefit from selling higher-ticket items, but last quarter HD had fewer transitions. It beat only because of those higher-ticket sales. Overall, we're still seeing disinflation, but how much longer can the consumer remain resilient? Savings are down a lot from a year ago. Will there be some trade-down?

DON'T BUY
One of the best performers in the Dow Q3 They reported truly strong numbers in their last quarter. It's holding up because it's geared to professional contractors who do a lot of renovations, as opposed to regular consumers. Tough to recommend this, though, because higher interest rates will limit construction.

HOLD
She's long both names, but their margins are getting squeezed. It's not an ideal place to be now. The backdrop are rising mortgage and interest rates. Mortgage rates just hit 7%.

TOP PICK
Increases dividend annually around February. Good grower. Really well run. Somewhat immune from housing slowdown, because if you can't afford to move, you renovate. Great resilience in the last few years. When on sale, tuck it in your portfolio, and it's on sale now. Yield is 2.77% with good growth. (Analysts’ price target is $356.23)

WAIT
HD vs. LOW Not sure you want to own either right now. For example, HD fell markedly yesterday with the inflation print. Reiterated 3% sales growth guidance, solid revenue, but higher interest rates are going to hurt. 18x 2023 earnings, only growing at 6.5%. Don't add here. Go for names that benefit from higher rates.

He just sold it because the housing environment doesn't look good and interest rates are creeping up. Plus, wage inflation.
