This summary was created by AI, based on 26 opinions in the last 12 months.

Canadian Pacific Rail (CP-T) has garnered mixed opinions from experts. While many believe in the long-term potential of the company, particularly after the KSU acquisition, concerns about cyclical economic conditions and ongoing tariff discussions are prevalent. Some analysts suggest waiting for better entry points or pullbacks, whereas others see current levels as appealing given the potential for recovery in industrial goods and manufacturing. Long-term growth rates are projected to be modest at around 4-5%, but the company is expected to benefit from efficiencies tied to artificial intelligence and expanding freight opportunities across North America. Overall, CP is recognized for its solid footprint spanning Canada to Mexico but may face headwinds amid uncertainties in trade policies and the economic landscape.

CNR

WATCH

(Market Call Minute.) He needs to see some turn in training traffic and would wait a month.

SELL

(Market Call Minute.) Would switch to Canadian National (CNR-T).

WEAK BUY

More geared to commodities vs. CNR.

DON'T BUY

When you see dividend moving up to a warning level for the sector, you be careful. Positive thing is that MACD is trending upwards. We’d like to see volume dry up as it moves up.

DON'T BUY

More of and East-West rail versus Canadian National (CNR-T), which is more North-South. This one is more of a commodity mover, which has taken a hit because of the recession. Slowly reaching a bottom so there is no rush to buy. He would prefer CNR.

COMMENT

(Market Call Minute.) Likes the rails and his preference today would be Canadian National (CNR-T). It's a question of being the bigger guy and having a wider range of distribution network.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick March 6/08. Down 45.2%.) Are Asian economies coming back? If so, this rail would be the better rail choice.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick March 5/08. Down 48.9%.)

DON'T BUY

Cheaper than Canadian National (CNR-T) but historically has not been as well managed. Also has heavier exposure to commodity prices, especially coal shipments. Also have some pension issues.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 6/08. Down 43.5%.) Particularly commodity exposed so got hit very hard. Still likes.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 8/08. Down 38.4%.) As economy improves, rails will be among the first to benefit. Competitive advantage in terms of long-term transport, particularly if energy prices go up again.

COMMENT

Just came out with a new issue. Companies that are not sure if they are going to have capital given their spending plans can take a bit of a haircut now in order to raise additional money.

BUY

Canadian Pacific (CP-T) and Canadian National (CNR-T) are at pretty good prices now. If you have a long term perspective and are willing to live with some volatility in the short-term, over the long haul both of them are going to be very good things to own. CNR would be his first choice because of the management. Consider splitting between the 2.

COMMENT

A little bit cheaper than Canadian National (CNR-T). A value name, but could also be a value trap.

COMMENT

Trades at a discount to Canadian National (CNR-T). An economically cyclical stock. With the economic slowdown, their volumes are going down. On any hint of an economic recovery, rails are definitely going to be there.
