Neutral ratings on: Dillards (NYSE: DDS) - Target $100. Chen sees Dillards, “positioned between Macy's & Nordstrom with respect to prices, mix of brands, & service given DDS offers accessible luxury brands like Michael Kors & Coach, but not D&G, Lanvin, Chloe', YSL, & other premier brands.” JC Penney (NYSE: JCP) - Target $6.50. The analyst believes JC Penney is on the right path with product offerings, but “merchandise execution risk and potential liquidity concerns” are the basis for his Neutral rating.Nordstrom (NYSE: JWN) - Target $65. “Outsized investments in top line likely to limit margin expansion, however, operating margin of 10.7% remains above peer avg. of 7% for 2014E.” said Chen, who is also concerned about Nordstrom's lofty valuation.Koh's Corp (NYSE: KSS) - Target $55. Chen is in wait-and-see mode on the effectiveness of Kohl's, “renewed focus on national brands, a new beauty department, expansion of the loyalty program, optimized advertising, and enhanced omni-channel capabilities.”
