The financial press pretty much made that clear.

Actually the stock price languished but gross sales and profits rose quite
substantially, the actually fiscal health of the company improved during his
tenure....does one properly fiscally judge a company by actual operations or
investor exuberance (subject to change on a whim)?

As a consumer one might rightfully complain about service, employees or
even his salary but consumers kept buying and HD made more money under his
leadership. Rod
