The value hound in me senses potential here. I believe the depressed housing market has had an overblown effect on the share price of this retailer, as only a portion of its revenue comes from new construction. Let's face it, if we're not moving to a new house, we'll be fixing up the old.

HD usually has what I need, and it's usually cheaper than Lowes. Lowes' nursery is good, though. But I wouldn't own either stock at this point. HD has so many stores they are probably competing with each other more than with other companies (I can think of 4 HD stores from my house to my office in a relatively straight line about 12 miles long and 2 miles wide). In that same swath are 2 Lowes stores. That kind of density (and competition) doesn't bode well for growth.
