In a note out to clients on Friday, a group of analysts led by Michael Binetti praised the company for strong performance amid its industry's troubles. The bank said a sell-off in the stock on Thursday was an "over reaction" by the market.

Both Credit Suisse and UBS are bullish on Nordstrom. Credit Suisse has a $52 price target for the stock, and UBS thinks the stock will go to $51. Both targets are above the firm's current stock price of $41.92.
