The big box retailer is sporting a P/E of a little more than 25, and it has been one of the most successful stocks in U.S. history, having come public at a split-adjusted price of about a penny per share.
The biggest holding of my late father’s portfolio was Home Depot (HD) which matched its lifetime high today. The big box retailer is sporting a P/E of a little more than 25, and it has been one of the most successful stocks in U.S. history, having come public at a split-adjusted price of about a penny per share.
Here’s the lifetime chart of HD. Pretty jaw-dropping stuff. The next question is whether today will wind up as a double top or simply another high that’ll get swept aside like the thousands before it.
I tilt to the bearish side. Slope of Hope is not, and has never been, a provider of investment advice. So I take absolutely no responsibility for the losses – – or any credit for the gains – – you may or may not make from reading this forum. Whether you lose your life savings or make a fortune is entirely up to you and your own skills/luck/fate.
