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
(Market Call Minute.) Model price is $66.21 giving it a -8% differential.
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) Poor earnings today on weather and economic conditions in the US but a good long-term company to own.
COMMENT
Canadian National (See comments under (CNR-T)) and CP are both going to have difficult 1st quarters. Weather wasn't great. If you have a longer-term view, you could hold it. If you want to try and be tricky, Sell before they report because the numbers will disappoint.
COMMENT
The railroad sector is very strong right now, especially in the US. Canadian National (CNR-T) and Canadian Pacific (CP-T) are not trading very well right now and he is not sure why. He prefers Canadian Pacific.
TOP PICK
If you are a believer in the commodity bull market story, particularly agricultural, this is a way to play it. Has gone nowhere over the last year as people worried about sensitivity of rails, but it's up 8.5% this year.
SELL
In the short term, he would be out of the rails. Thinks they will miss the area of expectation for the next couple of quarters. They are great longer-term plays.
TOP PICK
Thinks you are buying a little more for your $1 as opposed to Canadian National (CNR-T). One of the major shippers of potash, grains and coal. Less exposed to the US market. Thanks earnings are going to grow from the $4.30 area to over $5 in the next 2 years.
TOP PICK
They are in the sweet spot. If there is growth anywhere in the world, it's in overseas trade. They have potash, grain and coal shipping. They are the only ones of the major railroads that are seeing an increase in loaded cars. A way to play international growth with a Canadian company.
BUY
There is strong demand for resources. Also have more of an East/West capacity than Canadian National (CNR-T).
COMMENT
Rails are very economically sensitive. Truckers and rails are like the canaries in the mines. If there is any downturn, they will feel it. Less exposed to the US economy then Canadian national (CNR-T), but a bigger commodity exposure. When the US turns around, CNR will outperform.
TOP PICK
Likes the grain and the material handling. Proportionately less US exposure than Canadian National (CNR-T). Over the next couple of years, he sees them close to the agriculture and materials market. Sees earnings going well over $5 over the next couple of years.
WAIT
Canadian National (CNR-T) and Canadian Pacific (CP-T) are economy stocks. People are worried about the economic progress in 08 and into 09.
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) Long-term Buy but there may be some volatility in the short-term.
COMMENT
This is on his watch list. This is more commodity oriented and he is bullish on commodities.
COMMENT
One of those things that gets hurt at the tail end of a bear period. Looking at a long-term chart, around the $60 level, there should come in some major support.
