Home Depot (HD.US) stock fell more than 4.5% despite solid second-quarter results. Home improvement retailer earned $4.53 per share, while analysts expected earnings of $4.44 per share. Revenue also beat market expectations. However, for the first time in seven quarters the company missed U.S. same-store sales expectations. Same-store sales rose 4.5%, below the 5% consensus estimate as fewer people visited its shops to buy items for do-it-yourself projects.
