DON'T BUY

Very close to buying. Price-earnings ratios at 14.1 for this year and next are virtually identical for both CNR (CNR-T) and CP (CP-T). Prefers CNR of the two.

DON'T BUY

Looks interesting. Its quarter was a little disappointing. Prefers CNR (CNR-T).

SELL

CNR (CNR-T) and CP (CP-T) have one thing in common; very energy efficient and very sensitive to the economy. If the economy slows down, and energy prices backed off, they would lose their competitiveness. Easy money has been made. Reduce your holdings, especially on any rally.

BUY

Rails are down because of worries about economic slowdown. Canadian rails are more insulated from the US downturn.

DON'T BUY

Both CNR (CNR-T) and CP (CP-T) are about the same price earnings multiples on this year's end next year's earnings with just about identical yields. Prefers CNR.

BUY

Management feels the second half of the year is going to be stronger.

DON'T BUY

Sold his holdings earlier this year as it had had a decent run. Likes company and management. There has been a total breakdown in the transportation index. Prefers CNR which he owns.

TOP PICK

Reported pretty good earnings. Prospects seem to be good going forward. Potash, coal and grain are going to be the big drivers. The efficiency ratio keeps going up. An attractive entry point.

BUY

Positive on both Canadian Pacific (CP-T) and Canadian National (CNR-T) railways. This one is not quite the same quality in terms of their route network. Has higher costs than CN but they are bringing them down. Cheaper. Good management.

DON'T BUY

Prefers CNR (CNR-T) because it is more diversified, both geographically and what they haul. This one is a commodity hauler, making them more exposed to the commodity market. This is the time you want to lighten up in cyclicals.

SELL

A very cyclical type stock. Very strong support in the mid-$40. Thinks it will come back and test that support.

BUY

On a relative price basis, would prefer this to CNR (CNR-T).

BUY

Has a pretty good outlook. Have had some recent problems with the value of coal and their Fording coal contract, but it looks like a pretty good year for grain. More of their transportation volumes are with higher value added stuff. Stands to benefit from Canada’s growing economy.

HOLD

Both Canadian Pacific (CP-T) and Canadian National (CNR-T) are exceptionally well-run businesses. If you believe commodities are going to continue to stay strong, then you should stay put.

DON'T BUY

A great company. This is more resource oriented then Canadian National (CNR-T). If commodity stocks are weakening, that makes this company more vulnerable.
