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.
