Adjusted for inflation? With how many new stores in that timeframe?

  Caveat - I haven't gone to primary sources, but all indications are that they're doing pretty well. Increase of 1.8~% in number of store locations in the last 5 years. Inflation adjusted, revenue is up 38% since late 2009. Wal-Mart is similarly doing very well. If you thought HD and WMT were dying, this may be a moment to reevaluate the heuristics you're using to gauge the health of retail businesses. https://ycharts.com/indicators/home_depot_inc_hd_total_store_locations https://ycharts.com/indicators/home_depot_inc_hd_total_store... https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/HD/home-depot/revenue https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/HD/home-depot/reve...

    They are dying as what their namesakes suggest and instead become slop factories.

      Their investors don't care so long as line go up

      Care to elaborate beyond this insubstantial drive-by take?
