Some good comments about HD and LOW from the Fools: fnews.yahoo.com "As the number-two player in the home improvement market, Lowe's hasn't always gotten a lot of respect. After all, juggernaut Home Depot (NYSE:HD - news) is the proverbial category killer, and Lowe's was supposed to be dead meat. But it didn't take a two-by-four to the skull for Lowe's to figure out that it, too, could play the do-it-yourself game. " "Although Home Depot is even more expensive today, trading at about 40 times forward earnings estimates, it also sports higher profit margins (4.8% last year vs. 3.5% for Lowe's) with promises of consistent 24% EPS growth. It is also more than twice the size of Lowe's, justifying a premium for its market power. "
