So the thesis here is HD sales are down year over year because they are 3% shittier this year than last year?

Rejected repeatedly at 115, keeps trying though but each pullback gets bigger.
I sold at 114.70 earlier today on the thesis that it had a 10% run in past 2 days and it was overextended and due for some sort of correction. Will keep an eye on it to buy the dip again.
I'm still confident it can hit $150 (or at least come close) by end of August but most of that bump will have to come from its ER on 8/28. Indirectly I've seen several companies/people including Musk mentioning they've been buying all the new Blackwell GPUs from NVDA and they can't get enough of them, so NVDA sales likely have been gangbusters all spring.

I've switched in the last few years. Lowe's just doesn't have the products anymore and our local one had all registers removed for self check (aside from commercial exit ones). You basically get watched like you're in jail checking out awkward shit like bags of decorative rocks or mulch as a half dozen employees mill about in the return/order pickup area. Worthless.

Ladies and gentlemen we have arrived at our destination.
If we can get on top here would be quite bullish, or we do we get a W. Looking at big tech names individually I see how it could keep going. My gut read continues to be a W, if I'm wrong I'll just have to lick my wounds of missing 2% and get on board. Still haven't touched SPY position but pretty much the same set up. Today is a pretty solid tick towards bullish outcome, bears need to show up between now and the close or they are going to completely lose the momentum of the correction.

I got to Menards ( https://www.menards.com/ ) these days. The stores are 1.5x-2x bigger than Home Depot or Lowes, ridiculously huge selection
Best of all, you get a 11% rebate on anything you buy. Use their store credit card (from Capital One) and you get an additional 2% off everything.

I like Lowes because I get a 10% discount on basically everything but lumber for being a veteran. HD only does it for like July 4th and Veteran's Day.

Use to be you had to show em a dd214 but now you can get it squared away online and your phone number works. This is also the reason I primarily shop at lowes, plus I feel like they cater more to hobby home projects vs hd catering to contractors.

So Goog hammered on this anti trust news. After already being one of the slowest recovering mag7 stocks. Is it a buy though? I honestly would be shocked if the gov finally wakes up from its 25 year slumber on anti trust but who knows.
