Bill Simon, former president and CEO of Walmart, applauded the retailer's results:stuff, they're willing to spend. I'm particularly impressed by their operating income. I've been watching that for several years and it's been challenged as they move their business to digital, to e-commerce, and we see that big growth. Operating income's been under pressure, but they grew their operating income almost 9%, and even adjusted for currency, in the mid-teens.
Brian Nagel, senior analyst at Oppenheimer, said Home Depot's results were some of the best he'd ever seen: "Look, I would say this, and I've followed Home Depot now for 20 years, 20+ years. I've never seen a quarter like this. This is a 25% comp for a $100 billion company. So … just last week or early this week I raised my numbers to what I thought was a high 12-14%. All the data we've seen, we spent a lot of time in these stores, but still, just the thought of Home Depot putting up a 25% comp is absolutely amazing.
"Every quarter it looks like they're running on all cylinders and now the engine just keeps getting bigger. We've gone from an eight-cylinder engine to a 12-cylinder engine and with the e-commerce business humming the way it is and the way the companies have been able to integrate it with the store base with curbside and everything else, this is a tough one. This is really setting a high bar for brick-and-mortar retail and it's giving Amazon something to really think about.
