BUY

The home reno space has been in a slump, because people have been travelling and enjoying experiences. During Covid, they stayed home and renovated, which she feels will return, because there isn't enough housing to buy. So, people will stay in their homes and fix them up. Lower material costs will help. HD and Sherwin Williams are buys now.

BUY

The Home Depot investors' call this week was very positive. They saif that when a house gains value, people continue to invest in it. So, yes, stick with the best paint company, SHW.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jul 28/20, Up 43.6%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with SHW is progressing well. We now recommend setting a trailing stop at $280. If triggered this would all but guarantee a investment return over 32%.

DON'T BUY

Raw costs are too high. Don't touch it until those costs come down.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jul 23/20, Up 36%) Sold out, as the reopening trade is creating dominance over the stay at home trade. Inflationary pressures are causing input costs to rise, squeezing margins. Still likes it, but multiple was high and best days are behind it in this cycle.

PARTIAL BUY

An excellent company that delivered a great quarter. That said, he prefers Lowe's.

BUY

They had a great quarter and are riding the housing boom in the U.S.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 20/19, Up 26%) Very good management, dedicated to growing shareholder value. Stable. Next year, $25 EPS is in their scope. Not as good a value as it was last year, but not overvalued. Some of the opportunity has been captured.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly SHW is well positioned for the home improvement trend underway during the pandemic. Recent earnings reported a 28% increase in EPS and cash increased by over 40% to over $1 billion compared to last year. There was a slight slow down in their performance coatings division due to the pandemic, but consumer brands were up 21% in sales. The company guidance has increased its second half EPS outlook by 14%. We also like that the dividend payout ratio of less than 30% means safety in the dividend going forward. Yield 0.85%

TOP PICK

People are home, not spending money on other things, and are looking for something to do. Doing well going into the Covid situation. Housing starts were just getting going when Covid hit. Yield is 0.86%. (Analysts’ price target is $604.00)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Apr 22/19, Up 25%) Like Home Depot, this is a win-win, whether people stay hope and renovate, or if they move houses (which he predicts). SHW will benefit from either trend.

TOP PICK

He has owned it for a while . They are getting a little more expensive -- into the mid-20 price multiple. However, with US housing starts continuing to grow, he sees good growth ahead. Yield 0.78% (Analysts’ price target is $604.14)

BUY

An excellent company. They are also a very strong retailer. Their stores are very close to contractors. They are the first one to create paints with very low VOCs.

TOP PICK

Well-managed. Flat interest rates is a friend of housing. Well-managed with impressive growth metrics; SHW fully integrated a competitor it bought two years ago. Also, US employment and consumer confidence help SHW. (Analysts’ price target is $463.78)
