Lowe's carved out a new 52-week low at $187.66, undercutting the low it set just four sessions earlier by 0.44%. That's roughly a third off the $285.64 peak this window, with the $105.3 billion retailer now making fresh lows faster than it can hold them.
Latest Activity
Lowe's just marked a new 52-week low at $194.61, 1.01% under the low it set only five days ago. The $109.2 billion retailer has now taken out its floor twice in a week.
Lowe's just broke to a fresh 52-week low at $200.05, and the $200 line is now the level holders have to defend.
A 4.81% move to $224.30 is a big single-session swing for a name this size, and it follows Lowe's Q2 earnings beat. Whether the gain holds into the close is the tell on how investors read housing demand.
Pro, online and home services carried the quarter, with sales up 8.3% year over year and a fifth straight EPS beat versus the $4.22 consensus. The catch: full-year guidance was narrowed to the low end, flat comps and roughly $12.25 adjusted EPS, as DIY shoppers keep skipping big discretionary projects.
Lowe's confirmed second-quarter results for 6:00 AM ET today, before the open, making it the first real read on whether the mortgage lock-in effect is still pushing homeowners into renovations instead of moves. Comps and the DIY versus Pro split set the tone for Home Depot's own read-through.
