Bill-- as CFZ regulars know, i stay away from what i regard as "good" companies on the short side. and HD is what i regard as a "good" company -- great management, extremely high economic returns, etc. i prey on the sick and the injured <g> so i don't really have much of an opinion on Depot as a stock here.

one thing you MIGHT watch is the price of lumber. when lumber prices fall, Depot revenues go down. i don't know why people care, but they seem to.

fwiw, it seems like there are more HD's and LOW's in the Northeast right now than there are Micky-D's and BK's, but the ones around here are still pretty much PACKED every day.

Cheers
