With remote work on the increase, people are upgrading their home furniture and living conditions more than ever before.
A company like Williams-Sonoma will feel the benefit of this changing trend in living styles.
Increased demand should allow furniture retailers to counter-act rising material costs by raising prices.
Adding to this point, the housing market has remained strong. People need to buy furniture more than ever.
WMS earnings are released Wednesday, March 16th after the bell.
