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.

CP,CP

WEAK BUY

Prefers over CP because of their acquisition success in the US and the coverage they have in North America. Economically and weather sensitive. Deeply cyclical. Well-managed.

BUY

Likes both rails, but slightly better preference for CP Rail.

TOP PICK

Will be sensitive to the economy. Have an enormous network. When the economy turns, they will do better. Raise their dividends regularly.

BUY

Economic environment has improved, so stock has had a nice 3 months. Grain volume has become a little bit more secure.

BUY

Nice increases in book value from earnings every quarter. Trading at a very fair valuation to what their balance sheet should be earning.

DON'T BUY

The grain crop will probably be weak again this year. Needs a turn in the economy. Well-run. Has a great operating ratio. Would prefer other ways of playing the economy.

DON'T BUY

This and CPR look expensive compared to the US rails.

BUY

Expects decent economic growth.

HOLD

Freight traffic will be a factor. A long term hold. Well run.

DON'T BUY

Very dependant on economic growth. Probably won't rally.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Grain output should be awesome this year. Good operator. Has dividend increases. Would buy more on weakness.

BUY

Fundamentals show up well.

BUY

Well managed. A good holding.

BUY

Good company, but prefers CP Rail at this time.

DON'T BUY

All rails are having problems because of slowing economy.
