Mohawk Industries, Inc. (NYSE:MHK) will seek acquisitions. Jeffrey Lorberbaum Chairman & Chief Executive Officer answered to a question during the Second Quarter 2020 Earnings Conference Call, "We’re always looking at acquisitions to go through. At this point, it's a little hard to aggressively do acquisitions given that you don't know the environmental thesis, but we're always talking to different people on acquisitions. On the business, we're trying to minimize the capital investments for the moment, but we believe there'll be greater visibility in the not distant future and we'll start changing it. If you go back 1.5 months ago, the directive was stop everything we could stop. And we really haven't moved from that at this moment, but we're trying to decide what it should be. And every week, we get a better view of the market and what we should do".
