Canadian National R.R. (CNR) is experiencing a challenging period due to a prolonged freight recession, soft economic conditions in Canada, and external pressures such as tariffs. However, experts highlight the company's strengths, including its irreplaceable network and strong operational efficiency, which provide a clear competitive advantage. Many analysts express long-term confidence in the stock, recommending it as a good buying opportunity, especially at current valuations, which are seen as attractive relative to historical levels. Additionally, the company has a solid history of returning capital to shareholders through dividends and buybacks, amidst expectations that demand will improve with a healthier economic backdrop.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 1/10. Up 26.6%.) Still a Buy.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 31/09. Up 20.33%.) Another way to participate in the emerging market growth.

WAIT

North south, Canada/US. Prefers Union Pacific – he is looking at it. Used to own CN and is waiting for an entry point.

BUY

Bullish on the railways. Another way to play commodities. Prefers Canadian Pacific (CP-T) to this one but not sure there is a huge difference between them. CP made a very nice deal into the powder basin in Wyoming giving it an opportunity to ship an enormous amount of coal.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 1/10. Up 27.01%.) Still likes.

TOP PICK

Growth with their container plant and growth in shipping volumes. Good balance sheet. Fairly cheap. Free cash flow continues to grow at a 10% range and expects Feb dividend to get a 10% bump.

DON'T BUY

Rail traffic is exceedingly economic sensitive and he things the economy is quite fragile in the US. CNR in the US is the best-run railroad.

BUY

$77.15 model price and would buy it here. Dependent on economy continuing to grow. Sell in the good times. Buy again at $44.70. Model price is $91.45 a year out. Downside is $54.70 if economy suffers a shock.

TOP PICK

Economically sensitive. Most efficient railway in North America. Big play on commodities and inter modal. 1.7% yield.

HOLD

Best operating ratios compared to its peers. Excellent management. Good growth story and has the ability to increase dividends consistently. Volumes seem to be holding very well and look good on a year-over-year basis.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 7/09. Up 36%.) Leveraged play to the economy. Pays a good dividend. Recently came out with impressive earnings. Shorter term it is fully priced but a good long-term Hold.

BUY

It is an economy stock. Is not a bad buy on a longer-term basis. Probably better than CP right now.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 12/09. Up 36.49%.)

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Canadian National Railway (CNR-T) and Canadian Pacific (CP-T). Both are coming in with strong numbers on volume/yield. More lower fruit with CNR on operational improvements/cost cuts. Bought a line in the Chicago area, which will help them bypass congestion. For a long-term hold, he would prefer CNR but would wait for a pullback on either. Below $60 would be a good entry point.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Has had a nice move up. Rail traffic has been very strong in Canada, and with this company in particular. Very efficient operator but they still feel they can do more cost cutting. Can still take share from the trucking industry going forward. Would like to see it below $60.
