Lowe’s Companies (NYSE:LOW) stock rose 5.7% after its quarterly numbers showed U.S. consumers leaning heavily on the home improvement store during lockdowns.  Earnings per share were nearly one-third above consensus at Enforced leisure time at home appears to have called the bluff of husbands who have been swearing for years that they’ll “get around to doing that some day soon.” Target (NYSE:TGT) stock rose 1.4% after it, too, reported strong

7 Ways to Enjoy the Outdoors at Home

6 days ago ev3v4hn

In this current moment when many of us are staying home, one of the best remedies to help alleviate some of the stress is to head outside and get some fresh air – preferably at least six feet or more away from your neighbor. If you’re lucky enough to have an outdoor space, whether you have a sprawling backyard or a smidgen of a patio, make the most of it with these seven ideas for improving your outdoor area.

Curate an outdoor lounge space

Had to cancel a beach vacation you planned for spring break or summer? Set up an outdoor lounge space on your patio or in the yard to give your outdoor space a tropical feel.

Texas to lift some virus-linked restrictions, restart business in phases: governor

1 week ago ev3v4hn

HOUSTON (Reuters) – Texas will allow its coronavirus stay-at-home order to expire and begin re-opening businesses including restaurants and retail stores in phases beginning on Friday, state Governor Greg Abbott said.

The first business reopenings will require safe practices including limiting the number of people allowed into stores, movie theaters and malls to 25% of their licensed capacity, Abbott said on Monday. A second phase of openings could begin two weeks later.

“We want to reopen as quickly and as safely as we can,” said Abbott, citing the use of capacity limits that match those now in use at grocery and home improvement stores in the state.

The second phase of the openings will depend on the status of the outbreak in Texas over coming days. If infection rates continue to decline, the state could allow up to 50% capacity limits on May 18.

Wells Fargo No Longer Accepting HELOC Applications

1 week ago ev3v4hn

May 4, 2020 – Wells Fargo announced last Thursday that it will no longer be accepting applications for home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) after April 30. The company joins another big bank, JPMorgan Chase, in taking this route “after carefully considering current market conditions and economic uncertainty due to COVID-19,” according to its website.

What Is a HELOC?

A home equity line of credit, or HELOC, is similar to a credit card, providing the borrower with a specific amount of money they can borrow and pay back, available to draw from as needed (this is different from a home equity loan, which they would receive as a lump sum). The line of credit allows homeowners to borrow money typically against 80% of the equity (the value of the home minus the amount still owed on the mortgage) they have in their property, meaning the home becomes

3M Relies on More Than Just Face Masks to Get Through Pandemic

2 weeks ago ev3v4hn

(Bloomberg) — 3M Co. jumped after the maker of personal protective equipment reported strength in more than just its face-mask business.

Rising demand for cleaning supplies, food-safety products and even home-improvement items helped propel sales and profit above Wall Street’s expectations for the first quarter. While many industries have been decimated by the coronavirus outbreak, 3M reported Tuesday that its revenue rose 2.7%.

“These quarterly results were better than feared and indicated that there were still pockets of growth in personal safety, food safety, general cleaning and biopharma filtration,” Deane Dray, an analyst with RBC Capital Markets, said in a note. Virus-driven demand for respirators, meanwhile, added 1.3 percentage points of organic growth, he said.

The results underscore the dramatic economic upheaval caused by the coronavirus pandemic. While demand has tailed off in industries such as air travel and restaurants, other companies are seeing soaring interest in products to fight
