Various institutions have been adjusting their stakes in The Home Depot, Inc. (NYSE:HD), with some increasing their holdings, while others lower their positions. Amid this mixed investors' sentiment, the retail giant has solidified confidence by acquiring GMS for $5.5 billion, targeting contractors and home professionals. This move has made Home Depot a compelling consideration for investment, as further evinced by its consistent moderate buy ratings from brokerages.

The company's aggressive expansion strategy, such as the recent GMS acquisition and targeting a larger market share, has however reinforced bullish views from Wall Street.
Home Depot's confidence in fiscal 2025's outlook remains steady, just as their commitment to holding prices steady in the face of tariffs. Interestingly, Institutional investors own 73% of the company, and the prospect of substantial annual dividends from Home Depot's appreciating stock alongside potential earnings growth has attracted more stockholders.
