Home Depot is still well positioned despite Q1 miss: Fmr. CEO
Home Depot (HD) reported its first quarter earnings, missing revenue estimates for the quarter. The company also witnessed a decline in same-store sales as DIY projects became less frequent, with consumers pulling back on spending. Former Home Depot CEO Bob Nardelli joins Catalysts to discuss the report. Despite the miss, Nardelli believes Home Depot had "a strong quarter," stating that the company is "very well positioned, they're well-run, they're organized, and I think they have a terrific product offering across the board." Nardelli attributes the consumer pullback on big-ticket discretionary items to "challenges we're facing in the economy." He notes that consumers are not necessarily spending less money; however, they are getting less volume due to higher prices, creating the perception of a pullback. "On the news you keep hearing 'well, the consumer is strong; they're still spending,'" Nardelli tells Yahoo Finance. "Are they spending more because of the volume they're buying, or are they really spending more due to inflation?"

UPDATE 1-Uber unveils US shuttle service, expands Costco tie-up to woo price-conscious users
Uber Technologies is introducing a shuttle service in the U.S. and widening a delivery tie-up with membership-only retailer Costco as part of a series of initiatives unveiled on Wednesday to attract price-conscious consumers amid competition from rival Lyft . The initiatives were unveiled at the company's GO-GET annual event for new products and are meant to maintain growth at the ride-share and delivery giant after a strong 2023 that saw it reporting its first-ever annual profit. The San Francisco, California-based company said it will allow Uber Shuttle users to reserve up to five seats in advance on buses operating in high-traffic areas like airports, concerts, and sports events.
