This summary was created by AI, based on 34 opinions in the last 12 months.

Canadian National R.R. (CNR) has faced recent challenges, including strikes, weather issues, and reduced guidance, leading to a volatile stock performance. Despite these hurdles, experts are cautiously optimistic about the company's long-term stability, citing its established network and the cyclical nature of its business. Valuations have contracted significantly, creating a potential buying opportunity for investors. While there is concern over ongoing trade negotiations and market dynamics, the general sentiment is that CNR remains a strong player in the rail industry, which benefits from higher barriers to entry and has exhibited resilience over the years. Overall, CNR's fundamentals are solid, offering a favorable risk/reward scenario as the economy stabilizes and demand for rail services picks up.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
The model price is $67.83. A 24% positive differential. If the price fell to $53.22, he would build up the truck.
BUY
Has had a terrific run and is softening a little bit. Best run railroad in North America. Has suffered a little bit because of derailments.
WEAK BUY
Railroads have advantages in fuel over truckers. Is considering, at possible entry points. Doesn't own now.
BUY
Long term outlook for CN. New terminal in Prince Rupert, in BC.
TOP PICK
The best operator in North America. It's going to be bouncy. But it's a great way to tap into international growth. Risk is a global recession. They bought at $46
BUY
21.5% positive differential They like it. He thinks it will do well. Buy at $53.24
TOP PICK
It's in an uptrend. Has a "cup and handle" and has moved out of the handle part, and is moving up again. A very good consolidation pattern. Cup and handle is uptrend, a little dip, sideways.
TOP PICK
The best run railway in North America and with the best growth opportunities, in margins and its revenue base. New terminal in Prince Rupert, B.C. Possibly new ocean port in Nova Scotia.
COMMENT
Has about 20% positive differential.
TOP PICK
The best company in North America. Approaching 20% ROE. Has a good record of increasing dividends.
TOP PICK
The recent break from past congestion stood out. Settlement of the strike and are past the worst weather in the West. Excellent cash flow.
BUY
Both rail carriers, Canadian National (CNR-T) and Canadian Pacific (CP-T) are doing very well operationally. As fuel prices continued to rise, they have very bright future.
HOLD
Would be a little cautious over the next year or so. Had a tougher 1st quarter due to labour and weather. Brought the operating ratio down to an unheard-of level. Good long-term growth story, but is concerned about an economic slowdown.
COMMENT
US rails are showing a little bit better valuation characteristics due to the problems they are having in their economy. Because of this, he has been buying Canadian Pacific (CP-T) instead.
HOLD
Even with the downturn in the US economy, there is a lot of coal being hauled as well as a lot of other general commodities.
