CP
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick May 7/09, Up 27% excluding dividends)
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Oct 1/09, Up 20%) Well-managed company, backbone of economy. Prefers to CP because of their network – they are more North American. They are quite efficient and economically sensitive. Increased dividend every year.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 7/09. Up 22%.) A healthy railway reflects a healthy economy. Will benefit with the continuation of the growth of the North American economy.
BUY
Is at a new all time high. If a stock is above the 200-day moving average, which is rising, then go for it.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 25/09. Up 35.6%.) Sold this one part way through the year but would buy back in the mid-$50's.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Shippers have had a great move. Trading at multiples that are huge expectations on earnings next year.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Oct 01/09, Up 20%) Volumes have come back but he still likes it. CN has east/west and north/south so he prefers it to CP. They are the leader on how to run a yard. Dwell hours are 12 vs. 24 for competitors.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 7/09. Up 26.3% not including dividends.) Getting expensive now and would wait for a pullback before buying.
HOLD
Model price is $69.10, 12% upside.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
(Market Call Minute.) Has had a nice move.
WAIT
It’s a question of how long you are investing. Bullish on railways but it may not be this year. Prefers CP. Could tread water for 3-6 months.
TOP PICK
Best run railroad in North America. Rail traffic and volumes are a great barometer of economic and industrial activity. Bought a railroad near Chicago that allows them to bypass the city core. Opportunity to decrease transit times. Long-term they will get growth due to economic growth. Dividend increased recently and they started share buy-backs.
BUY
(Market Call Minute) Limited downside of 5% / 15% upside.
BUY
N.A. economy continues to grow. This has been a great company. Year after year of raising dividend. Core holding in portfolios. CP is only in private portfolios.
TOP PICK
Just raised dividend and re-instituted their share buy back even after they've had the worst possible slowdown in rail traffic in the last 35 years.
