Sherwin-Williams Paint giant Sherwin-Williams (NYSE: SHW) may not be a market darling, but it should be. The company has been pressured by high interest rates and inflation holding back many homebuyers, home equity borrowers, and renovation projects. It recently boasted more than 5,000 stores and branches, and 136 manufacturing and distribution facilities, and its brands include Valspar, Minwax, Purdy, Krylon, Thompson's Water Seal, Cabot, and Dutch Boy.
