Dillards is a heavy weight in the retail arena and can weather all seasons. The stock currently trades at half book and is a bargain for those willing to ride out seasonal ups and downs... Family has controlling intrest and this has been a largely debated issue. Buyout noise spurs rapid intrest in this stock.Will trade back to book under fair to great market conditions,is listed in the S&P. Good retail prospects longrun, They own almost all their 366 store locations...amoung other good aspects in their key statistics!

As an employee, I know something about what is going on in the stores in the Austin market. The older stores were allowed to run down and they smell and are cluttered with bad lighting, so the sales are poor. They are breaking ground now on a store at The Domain in N Austin where Neiman's, Tiffany's, LVuitton and Macy's are struggling for sales. Not a good neighborhood for higher price point sales. They run all Dillard's like they are one huge battleship (in unison) instead of individual 40 foot sailing yachts with different clientel in different neighborhoods. This is not going to work for their success in this economy.

Does anybody anywhere shop at Dullards? Their recently-remodeled Chattanooga mall store (biggest mall in TN) seems rather empty, especially for Christmas.

I don't shop Dillards often but it's very hard to beat Walmart prices during the Holiday season. I used to think Dillards was outpricing themselves but the quality of products is what most folks are turning to. Dillards has very high quality products.

I went to Dillard's today at Hane's Mall in Winston, NC and I am proud to say I have never been inside a more cleaner, organized, or friendly store anywhere. I also went inside Macy's and the difference was night and day. That speaks for itself. Dillard's was full of shoppers over Macy's 3:1. DDS is here to stay and today's stock jump of .33 is just the start of a very good earning for all who is willing to play. You will be rewarded if you buy DDS now. Don't let the New Year and CNN money line news scare you away from the markets. Play hard and play long.........

My old roommate is a buyer for them and left after having worked for them for ten years. He left because of nepotism in the company. This is just one person's experience but he's not an egocentric person. Also, I've tried to shop in their Little Rock store, they're based in LR, and found Nortdstrom prices but JC Penney products. I'm just watching and waiting to sell short
