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.

WATCH

Stock has been in a congestion area and is on the verge of a possible breakout. If it gets to $55-$56 it will go significantly higher.

COMMENT

Management is talking about increasing dividends or doing a share buyback. Either one of these would be positive for the stock. Railroads are economy stocks and will go the same as the economy and he doesn't think we are totally out of the woods. Extremely well managed railroad.

TOP PICK

A tentative cyclical way to get some economic exposure. Great management and really good cost control. As soon as there is a start of some volume and recovery in the economy, it will drop right to the bottom line and you could get $60.

TOP PICK

Good free cash flow and have been buying back shares. This is a call on the North American economy where Canadian Pacific (CPR-T) is a call in the global economy. Low cost producer.

WAIT

The industry leader. In a general North American recovery, he would prefer this to Canadian Pacific (CP-T). Still a little too early to get in.

TOP PICK

Gives exposure to an improving economy. One of the best run companies in North America. Good earnings growth. Starting to seem some improvements in car load volumes.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 20/09. Up 30.72%.) Transportation, rails in particular, is a reflection of the economy. To the extent that the economy is hitting the bottom and recovering, you should see this in the rails. This is one of the most efficient rail operators on the continent. Resemble balance sheet and good management team.

COMMENT

(Market Call Minute.) Prefers this to Canadian Pacific (CP-T) any day.

TOP PICK

Well managed company and good returns. Shareholder friendly. Recently won a contract with Teck Cominco (TCK.B-T) taking it away from Canadian Pacific (CP-T). They can continue to outperform the rest of the industry and control costs.

DON'T BUY

Tied into the economy so the economy has to pick up before they do better. First you will see demands for shipments pick up and then this will benefit. Very well run company. There is no rush to buy this.

COMMENT

Rails have done very well considering we are supposed to be in an economic downturn. With production being down and all the other things it is hard to conceive that they can continue doing well. Would like to see a pullback before buying.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick June 18/08. Down 7.7%.)

TOP PICK

Rail shipping is a barometer of the economy and so far we haven't seen a lot of improvement. If the economy does pick up this company will be the first to see it. Best management team and good balance sheet.

DON'T BUY

Thinks we are in a multi-month rally that could take us out to the fall. Historically retracement rallies off of bear market bottoms through a 50% bear market you might get a 50%-60% rally coming out and then at that point we'll find out if a stimulus has an impact and the economy recovers. He prefers owning things that are participating right now. Transports and rails have been lagging.

WAIT

Canadian National (CNR-T) versus Canadian Pacific (CP-T)? Canadian National but don't buy either until the 2nd quarter earnings come out. Expects a very rough quarter.
