Canadian National R.R. (CNR) has faced challenges including reduced guidance, strikes, and external issues affecting volumes, leading to a drop in stock valuation. Despite these obstacles, experts express optimism about its long-term prospects, citing its substantial network, good free cash flow, and a history of share buybacks. Concerns over trade tariffs and economic cycles continue to loom, but many expect that once such uncertainties are resolved, CNR could benefit significantly. The company's competitive advantages, such as high barriers to entry and pricing power, make it a potentially attractive investment, especially as valuations have adjusted lower recently. Overall, while current conditions reflect some pessimism, the long-term outlook remains positive as CNR is anticipated to remain a vital player in the transportation sector.

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.

BUY

It's a previous pick. It's done well, he still likes it.
