Oppenheimer maintains an 'Outperform' on Williams-Sonoma (NYSE: WSM) price target of $47.00.

Oppenheimer analyst says, "On Mon., Nov. 21st, we met with Williams-Sonoma COO, CFO Sharon McCollam at the company's headquarters in San Francisco. Last week, WSM reported better than expected Q3 (Oct.) results. Management does not comment upon business trends intra-quarter. We have for some time recommended WSM as one of the most compelling investment opportunities amongst leading hardlines stocks. WSM continues to execute on its new, more online-centric strategy well. The company's West Elm locations are performing well. Enhanced drivers should serve to boost sales at the core Williams-Sonoma stores through the upcoming holiday selling season. Competitive pressures within the home sector seemingly continue to ease."
