Canadian Pacific Rail (CP) has emerged as a topic of interest among analysts, primarily due to its recent performance and strategic positioning. While some experts believe that it has strong growth potential stemming from the KSU acquisition, others express concerns about the ongoing freight recession impacting demand. The company's valuation is seen as higher compared to competitors, and its performance is tied to broader economic conditions, particularly the Canadian economy. Experts are split on whether now is a good time to buy, with several suggesting waiting for a pullback before entering. Tariff uncertainties and the effects of trade agreements like CUSMA are recurring themes in the reviews, indicating that while CP has a strong operational network, external factors could influence its short-term outlook.

Consensus

Wait

Valuation

Overvalued

Similar

CNR, CNR

DON'T BUY

Feels the stock is probably fully valued and you would probably do better with Canadian National (CNR-T) at this point. The operating ratios are still abysmal compared to CNR. Also, the coal situation does not look very good in terms of Chinese demand.

SELL

Dow transportation average at a very high level from a historical point of view. So there are increasing risks going into this sector.

DON'T BUY

(Market Call Minute.) Valuation went up sky-high when the proxy fight went on.

DON'T BUY

The strike is going to be short term. The stock is discounting a lot. Doesn’t own it because it is ‘priced for perfection’. He doesn’t feel there is a lot of upside potential. Prefers CSX corp. over the Canadian railroads.

DON'T BUY

(A Market Call Minute.) Sold his holdings about a month ago and bought Canadian National (CNR-T). Expectations are probably too high. It will take longer to get the operating ratios down.

SELL

He owns CNR. It is the best in class and the most efficient. CP is richly priced. Thinks there will be labour issues.

BUY

He is happy with the result. It is a buying opportunity. It is an excellent entry point. Sees $7 per share in earnings. Thinks shares can go into the high $80s

WAIT

A perennial under performer but had a spike on this proxy ballot. He may have to look at it harder after it plays out.

COMMENT

Doesn't have higher expectations. Does see that they did produce some results. Terrible terrain that they occupy.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick April 5/11. Up 23.21%.)

HOLD

A Hold because of the shenanigans going on between the CEO and the Board of Directors. There could be a takeover premium in there.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick April 18/11. Up 27.92%.) Has sold this and bought Canadian National (CNR-T).

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Apr 5/11, Up 23.95%) He got out a little early. He liked the leverage to the west and the China story but it so poorly run and switched to CNR, but would have done better continuing with CP. It is fairly valued here and he would take profits.

SELL

Is a great stock. Has had a great run up. Looks very good, but is seeing the volume dropping off. Take some profits.

SELL

Owns CN. CP is over bought and he would sell it if he were a trader. It took CN 5-10 years to get operating ratios down to CN’s, so CP can’t do it in 2. You might want to take the money and run. Getting the operating ratio down is already in the price.
