Could Home Depot Turn Around this Year?

Could Home Depot Turn Around this Year?

Last year was tough for home improvement retailers, including Home Depot (HD), whose stock price fell 9.3%. The stock fell despite Home Depot beating analysts’ EPS expectations in the first three quarters of 2018, as investors grew skeptical about increased interest rates and the weak housing market. Weakness in broader equity markets—the S&P 500 fell 6.2%—didn’t help, either.
