One measure of a company's value its underlying assets. If they have the cash flow to acquire more real estate without having to go to the debt market or float additional shares that is usually a good thing. (As long as real estate values climb) The more stores they have, the more product they will be able to move. Remember that the home improvement market is still very fragmented worldwide.

This is where a good management team comes into play. This team feels the best uses of funds is to build additional stores vs. paying a dividend or buying back stock in order to build long-term shareholder value.

Suma, That is a very interesting question for which I wish I knew the definitive answer! <g> Home Depot should do all right longer term in my opinion, as they seem to know what they are doing in their field of expertise..... The shares are currently going through a bit of a rough period, but the next buy signal may be a good time to pick up some shares. Yogi
