Canadian National R.R. (CNR) is viewed as a high-quality transportation business with strong fundamentals, evident from revenue increases and raised earnings outlook, although it faces challenges from competition, trade uncertainties, and economic cycles. Experts highlight a mixed outlook, with a preference for patience as recovery in freight volumes and GDP growth is anticipated, despite experiencing a freight recession lasting several years. Some analysts express concern over CNR's reduced guidance and external trade pressures, while others view it as an attractive long-term investment due to its irreplaceable network and historical resilience. Valuations have contracted, making it appealing for new investments at current levels, especially given its dividend yield and buyback history, despite volatile market conditions influenced by geopolitical events and economic shifts.

BUY

Just recently bought some. Doesn't have a lot, but quite happy to hold. Has some important traffic in the US. Brilliantly run and should be held long term.

WEAK BUY

1.2% dividend. The best run railroad in North America. It is benefiting hugely from the high demand of resources. The share price is very high. Favours CP Rail (CP-T), as it is still catching up.

BUY

Likes the railroads. The rails were starved for capital many years ago. They now have great pricing power. The commodity boom is really helping these companies out. This one is the better Canadian rail. It is better run. You can own either one, and do well.

BUY

The best run rail in North America. This is a good way to play the sector with traffic going east and west as well as north and south.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Looking at this one very closely. Best railway in North America. Would prefer buying below $50.

WEAK BUY

Likes the rail story. Prefers Canadian Pacific (CP-T) as it is trading cheaper and has a higher cost structure giving it the opportunity to reduce costs even more.

BUY

The best run and most profitable railroad in North America. It's not too dependent on commodities. Still lots of upside. The industry still looks very healthy.

TOP PICK

A leverage play on the western Canadian resources and global growth. Low operating margins.

BUY

CNR is the best, most efficient company. It has great leadership. If economy weakens CNR could as well, but it is not likely. It should be a core holding in your portfolio. It is a buy right now type of stock. It is expensive but don't wait to buy it cheaper.

BUY

A great stock. At the top of it's class. He owns CP instead because it's statistically cheaper.

BUY

This has been a good stock to own for the last few years. Trucking and rail companies have been doing well. Well managed company. They own CNR and CP.

WEAK BUY

Believes this company will do well. He prefers CP over CNR. He owns CP.

BUY

Likes it, and will continue to buy. The dividends have done very well. Very well run.

WEAK BUY

He likes the rail. This is the most profitable North American railroad. It is a well managed company, but trading at the high end. He would prefer C.P. rail.

HOLD

This stock is a little pricey. It is the best rail but you are paying for it. He prefers C.P. rail and does not recommend owning both rail companies.
