What are Wall Street analysts saying about Nordstrom stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Nordstrom stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Although shares of Nordstrom have declined in a year, it has outperformed the industry. Further, the company delivered solid earnings in fourth-quarter fiscal 2018, marking 10th bottom-line beat in trailing 11 quarters. Earnings also grew year over year due to lower tax expenses. Also, an encouraging guidance for fiscal 2019 drives optimism. The company has been progressing well with its customer-based strategy, thus remains on track to reach its 2020 financial targets. Its focus on store expansion, loyalty program and investments in digital growth is also noteworthy. However, the company is witnessing strained gross margin for a while now. Increased markdowns from soft sales trends in full-price stores and higher promotions hurt gross margin in the fiscal fourth quarter. Further, the company lagged sales estimates after three straight beats. Higher expenses toward store-openings, technology and supply chain are added concerns." (3/19/2019)
- 2. Guggenheim analysts commented, "We view JWN’s top-line strategy (brands, e-comm, local market) and profitability initiatives positively, but believe shares are fairly valued at their current premium vs. dept. store peers; remain NEUTRAL." (2/28/2019)
