BUY

Will have 2 or 3 quarters in a row of lousy earnings. A lot of this is weather based, flooding in North Dakota and Minnesota. Once they get through the weather issues, efficiencies will be back on track. Has under performed the other rail stocks.

BUY

This rail has the commodities side that is feeding Asia giving leverage that can work plus or minus. Good yield and at a good price.

BUY

Canadian National (CNR-T) or Canadian Pacific (CP-T)? He prefers CP. CNR deservedly sells for a premium but he sometimes thinks the premium is of little out of line. CP has never been as efficient but has been making strides in improving their operating efficiency. Both of them are a play on economic recovery. Has seen CP forecasts having them earned $4-$5 a year over the next couple of years.

BUY

Expecting significant growth and significant growth in cash flows in the railroad industry in the next few years. With high fuel costs, they will steal share from the trucking industry.

DON'T BUY

An economy stock but very much a resource stock as well. Didn’t have a great winter because of being totally focused in Canada. He would prefer Canadian National (CNR-T) instead, which is outperforming them. A lot more of its facilities and track is in the US.

COMMENT

Canadian National (CNR-T) or Canadian Pacific (CP-T)? He owns both, but substantially more CN than CP. Prefers CN because it is a North American Railway going east/west and north/south where CP primarily just goes east/west. Operating ratio on CN is substantially better.

TOP PICK

Bought today for new clients. Unfortunate bout of weather in the winter and now flooding, so looking forward this will be an earning machine. Thinks they can earn to reach $75/share. Nice long term contracts with TCK and POT. Rest of year will be much better.

BUY

12-18 months good outlook. Sees continuing expansion of economy in North America. He has been moving from CNR to CP to some extent. 12-18 months good outlook. Sees continuing expansion of economy in North America. He has been moving from CNR to CP to some extent.

TOP PICK

Much better to run goods on rails than on trucking. Have had some really strong headwinds, especially if you look at their last quarters numbers. Bad weather and fuel issues. These things are changing over the next little while and margins will expand. Trades at a discount to its peers. Decent yield at 2%.

BUY

Canadian National (CNR-T) is the better managed company but this one trades at 1 to 1.5 discount to CN. Rails benefit from growth in the emerging markets. $0.30 a share in dividends. Likes both companies.

DON'T BUY

Owns and prefers CNR-T, which has a better cost and is north south, not east west. CNR raised dividend when CP profit warned because of severe winter weather. CP is not cheap enough to switch to at this time.

TOP PICK

Great Canadian infrastructure. Relatively cheap. Moving things by rail is going to be essential in the next 10-20 years.

TOP PICK

Always has operating issues. With high oil prices, freight does better than trucking so instead of having a head wind they have a tail wind. Global economy is expanding. Got hurt last quarter because of weather related issues. Feels it is set to not only have great earnings but actually have increased cash flow and possibly increased dividends over the next couple of years.

DON'T BUY

Prefers CNR. CP had a hiccup with it being a bad winter. CP is east/west and CNR is north/south. He finds CP a little expensive.

BUY

Starting to drop but thinks it is all right. Major trend has not been violated. In a channel and the trend is still up. It will be a beneficiary of the Japanese event or anything going to Asia. Rail stocks still look firm.
