Lowe’s Q2: Headwinds Are Temporary

Summary:

  • LOW reported some headwinds in its Q2 earnings surrounding its DIY demands and weather conditions.
  • I see these headwinds as temporary only.
  • I expect EPS growth to resume soon thanks to its robust ROCE and sustainable CAPEX investment.
  • I also see signs of improvement in macroeconomic conditions and potential policy catalysts from Kamala Harris’ proposed support for first-time homebuyers.
