If you believe JWN can sustain its higher gross margin while improving operating margin and growth closer to HD's levels, then a selective long position may be justified because JWN's leverage is lower and its implied price sits within the DCF range; otherwise, the current data support holding back because HD still has superior profitability and capital efficiency.
JWN's implied price of $43.48 sits within the broader HD implied range of $44.02 to $193.72 and also inside the DCF range of $36.10 to $48.84, suggesting limited near-term valuation dislocation. The main gap is not an obvious discount on quality-adjusted metrics, because HD trades on visible profitability and scale advantages while JWN's valuation support is harder to anchor with missing P/E and other market multiples.
