????Department store retailer?Dillard's(DDS,?Fortune 500)?mostly serves customers in the middle of the country, catering to people looking for a price-point somewhere between?Macy's?(M,Fortune 500)?and?Nordstrom?(JWN,Fortune 500).

????By moving slightly more upscale over the past several years, Dillard's has managed to pinpoint what its customers want and what keeps them coming back. Sales at stores open more than one year consistently beat analysts' forecasts in 2012.

????Unlike most of its competitors, Dillard's owns most of its underlying real estate within shopping malls. That's helped make Dillard's more attractive to investors, as the real estate market started to rebound.

????The Little Rock, Ark.-based retailer also continued to buy back its shares. Finally, Dillard's investors got a December stocking stuffer -- a $5-per-share special dividend.

????Analysts have cheered Dillard's ability to stand apart from peers like?J.C. Penney?(JCP,Fortune 500)?and?Kohl's?(KSS,?Fortune 500). Should the firm keep up the stellar work, J.P. Morgan's analysts think the stock has room to run.
