HD vs. Lowe’s for long term?

I’m from Australia, and I’ve been investing in the Nasdaq for a hot minute. I’m interested in HD or Lowes (or both) and just want some insight from people from the U.S. on these two companies.

We have Bunnings in Aus (which I imagine is somewhat similar) and home improvement is forever on the rise for obvious reasons. Anyway here are my Q’s:

• Is one more affordable than the other?
• Whats the customer sentiment like for both? – If you’re a tradesman which one would you go to?
• Is one more affordable or trusted than the other

• For holding longterm, which one would you prefer and why?

  Thanks in advance.
