Deutsche Bank Starts Macy's (M) at Buy; SSS Growth Should Continue

Deutsche Bank initiates coverage on Macy's (NYSE: M) with a Buy. PT $34.00.

Deutsche analyst says, "At current valuation (8.2x our 2012 EPS), M appears to be discounting a repeat of 2008/2009, which while plausible from a macro standpoint seems unlikely for company specific reasons, and should not impact the stock to the same degree. To this end, M balance sheet is much healthier today (no covenant issues) and structural changes internally should lead to outsized Same-Store Sales (SSS) growth versus peers."
