This summary was created by AI, based on 28 opinions in the last 12 months.

Canadian Pacific Rail (CP-T) has garnered a mixed yet generally optimistic outlook from analysts. Many experts acknowledge the potential growth potential stemming from the KSU acquisition, which enhances CP's North American footprint, positioning it advantageously amidst a tightening freight market. However, some concerns linger regarding the ongoing freight recession and the impact of tariff negotiations on the sector. Despite these challenges, there is a prevailing sentiment that CP may benefit from a cyclical recovery, leading analysts to recommend waiting for a pullback to optimize entry points. Overall, while some express caution regarding current economic indicators, CP's long-term prospects seem promising, making it a noteworthy consideration for investors interested in railway stocks.

CNR
DON'T BUY
Trading on hope and hype instead of fundamentals. Thinks it is expensive right here. Prefers CN
DON'T BUY
It’s going to be a long time before they can bring the operating ratio down. It is the highest PE of the north American railways. Is looking to trade out of it into CNR-T.
DON'T BUY
Feels the shakeup is good. He has been concerned about the total economy growth and this one tends to be a commodity transporter. Numbers have been poorer. Yield is in indifferent.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 13/11. Up 27.79%.) Has sold this and bought Canadian National (CNR-T).
SELL
CP Chairman has an uphill battle. I above his model price.
BUY
Believes there is room to move their operating ratios to be closer in line with Canadian National (CNR-T). Believes the proxy battle that is currently taking place is a real boon to investors. Trading at only 3.2X book value.
HOLD
Possible new CEO who made Canadian National (CNR-T) the most efficient railroad in North America with the lowest expense ratio. (This one has the highest, which is somewhat due to geography through the Rockies.)
HOLD
Doesn’t think CP rail is a takeover target. Stock has moved up quite a ways since the hedge fund has tried to displace management. You want to hang on for a little bit longer, but you are not buying the stock particularly cheap.
DON'T BUY
As good as management is, they will never be able to get operating ratios to the level where Canadian National (CNR-T) is. The geography has a major place in this. Feels the stock is getting fully valued.
HOLD
Concerning about both the Canadian Pacific and Canadian National (CNR-T) in that they are economy stocks. Interesting that the rails are getting into the business of transporting oil and could turn out to be quite profitable. He is looking at them again.
DON'T BUY
CNR is the best railroad in North America – the most efficiently run and good management so he prefers them to CP. CP’s efficiency is very low and need a change in management and attitude. Issued bonds today to take advantage of low interest rates.
COMMENT
In an uptrend but has some pretty major resistance in the high $60. Likes the stock up to about $60, $69, $70 but on a comparable basis, Canadian National (CNR-T) just took out its old highs. Would prefer CN.
COMMENT
Doesn’t think there is a takeover brewing. The difference between CP and CNR has widened.
BUY
Hot time for Transportation right now. Prefers CN but CP is performing quit well here. We could get back up to the highs. Just keep putting a stop on it.
COMMENT
Prefers Canadian National (CNR-T) because it has better North American foot print and is less dependent on commodities. This one is OK, but just not as good.
