Stifel keeps Hold rating for Home Depot stock at USD 346.00

According to Investing.com on September 28, 2026, Stifel maintained a Hold rating on Home Depot and set a USD 346.00 price target. The call puts the analyst debate beside a euro quote that was up 0.63 percent against its prior close on October 2, 2026.
Target meets a weaker housing backdrop
MarketBeat reported on October 1, 2026, that 32 analysts had a Moderate Buy consensus, with 18 Buy, 13 Hold and one Sell rating. The average 12-month target was USD 375.18, while the cited Home Depot share price was USD 284.96, leaving a wide gap between valuation expectations and the market level.
The same MarketBeat report identified high borrowing costs and low housing turnover as risks for large remodeling projects. That matters because the company relies on both do-it-yourself demand and professional contractors, making big-ticket project activity a key swing factor.
Second-quarter revenue climbs 5.70 percent
Home Depot generated USD 47.86 billion of revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, up 5.70 percent from the year-earlier period, according to MarketBeat. Adjusted earnings per share reached USD 4.92, exceeding the USD 4.73 consensus by USD 0.19.
Fiscal 2026 earnings-per-share guidance was set at USD 14.69-15.28. The comparison is useful: revenue growth remained positive, but the valuation case still depends on sustained demand while housing activity stays constrained.
Third-quarter results have a date
The Home Depot lists November 17, 2026, for its fiscal 2026 third-quarter earnings release on its investor-relations site. That report should give investors a fresh read on professional-customer demand, delivery investment and the company's ability to convert revenue growth into earnings.
Euro quote remains above prior close
Home Depot was trading at EUR 252.98 at Lang & Schwarz on October 2, 2026 at 4:11 p.m. CEST, up 0.63 percent versus the prior close of EUR 251.40. The primary exchange context was USD 284.25 on the NYSE at 10:25 a.m. EDT, with a market capitalization of USD 283.4 billion and a 52-week range of USD 277.15 to USD 397.63 on October 2, 2026.
