Downthumb. Overrated company with slow growth, nominal everything on the cash flow and balance sheet. Low short base. Company is slowing store openings.
Recs
This stock is set to rise...good value.

The housing slump is not over but once stability sets in, Lows is in a better postion to grab market share faster than Home Depot whos financials are in far worse shape than Lows.
Recs
Housing market is almost at the low so it may take a year or two to show clear uptrend. However, existing homeowners still need to keep up their homes
Recs
Will go to 30 within 9 months

The company is free cash flow positive. Lowe's long-term prospects are great when the housing market turns. And the joint venture with Woolworths I think this stock is a money maker long term. (According to Lowe's, the Australian home-improvement market is worth roughly $20 billion, and the joint venture plans to open about 150 stores over the next five years.)
Recs
Aggresive expansion, maintaining SSSs and profit margins
Recs
dirt cheap stock
Recs
Not sure about future earnings growth potential with the anouncement of cutting back construction to only 35 stores in North America this year.
Recs
With credit getting tighter, and a sluggish housing market, it is tough to sell a home. Homeowners that were able to keep their homes by not overbuying may be thinking of DIY upgrades to improve the property's value for future sale.
So I think that both HD and Lowe's will be doing much better by next summer.

Recession has everyone making things last as long as possible. How better to make things last than to invest in your own home? Seems as we come out of this recession home improvement companies like LOW and HD should do well.

Mmm...home improvement...
Recs
disappointing earnings
Recs
Lowe's profits were less than Depot's for the 1st time since 2003 if the article I read is correct. People are holding onto their $ so profits are down. They'll be back... over $20 at least. Go long.

Both Lowes and Home Depot have fallen into the abyss of the sellers landfill on wall street. Along with Home Depot, I think Lowes is poised to reap some massive revenues with, what I think will soon be a residential super nova when it comes to the real estate market. With interest rates never lower, an $8,000 tax credit to first time home buyers, and foreign markets in the asian pacific regaining momentum, i see some excellent conditions for a return to glory for these two companies.
Go Long.... Fool On!

I wouldnt be surprised if this stock fell to slightly under 20. But in the long run, I see this in the 40's. expect this to be in the low 30's by spring of 2010.
Recs
Housing pain fully prices in, good new store growth startegy, better customer service than HD, well-managed, undervalued
Recs
New kid on the block in Canada, has a better product skew featuring more made in America products, will gain market share by pummeling 'Orange Warehouse'.
Recs
Much better managed than the Home alternative. As recession ends, delayed projects will be initiated.
