Experts have mixed feelings about Canadian National Railway (CNR), largely viewing it as a solid long-term investment despite current challenges. The company is seen as having a unique and irreplaceable network, which is coupled with high barriers to entry and a decent dividend yield of around 2-2.7%. There is a consensus that CNR is benefiting from reduced capex after heavy investments, allowing it to accommodate growth with less immediate expenditure. However, the sentiment is tempered by concerns of a freight recession, tariffs, and a soft Canadian economy, leading some analysts to favor its competitor, CP. Overall, while the outlook includes potential volatility due to economic factors, CNR remains an attractive option for long-term investors looking for value amidst its current discounted valuation.

BUY

His favourite railroad in the world. The best run. Has rated leverage to taking out more costs. Not commodity based.

BUY

Its return on capital and every single operating metric pretty much says it is the best railroad in North America.

BUY

Likes this stock and holds it in his value portfolios which is more for his conservative investors.

DON'T BUY

This company has been on a tremendous roll. Everything has gone well for them. It's near its high at the moment. A good time for them to split the stock. Going forward, the economy really has to hold up to justify the current valuation. Too expensive for him.

BUY

Would classify this as a value, soft cyclical stock. Probably a little more of a value stock than CP Rail (CP-T). Best operator in North America. Pretty good value. Looking for 10% for the year.

DON'T BUY

The company has done fabulously well. The global growth in trade and commodities has really been tremendous for them. Has delivered earnings growth which he has found surprising. Present valuation looks too high for him.

BUY

A really good proxy for the overall economy. The most efficient railway in North America. Sees continued growth.

BUY

Railway industry is a great one. It has consolidated, restructured and has great pricing power. Continues to feel there will be a great commodity market over the next year or so. Growth in China will cointinue and will help the rails. You need a longer term view of this one.

BUY

They have a big exposure to the western resource story. The auto sector slowdown will hurt them a little bit, but they are such a well-run railroad and is a good growth story.

BUY

Likes the rails. This is one of the best managed rail companies in North America. They manage to continually generate 10/15% earnings growth in spite of higher costs of fuel, etc.

BUY

If you buy with the view for the next 3 to 5 years you should do very well. Amazing efficiency operations. They have the pricing power with the ability to pass on fuel costs.

BUY

Likes the railway business and in Canada in particular. CP (CP-T) has a much higher exposure in commodities so can be more volatile. Valuation is reasonable. Has good management and operating ratios.

HOLD

Likes the company. Has had a fairly good move here and is pushing a point here where it might be worthwhile to take some profits.

BUY

(Caller- Bought at about $54 and wonders if he should sell.) If it's a large % weighting in your portfolio, he would pare back. If you have 20 stocks, average weighting should be 5%. Long term outlook is still positive.

BUY

There may be a bit of a pull back as it's had a strong move. Don't think you can go too far wrong owning this one.
