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.

Valuation

CNR

WEAK BUY

Prefers CNR as the better run railroad. CP is a nice play on the rebounding commodity, better harvest in the West.

DON'T BUY

A very cyclical company. Facing some very heavy headwinds with the rise in the Cnd $and higher cost of fuels. Very dependent on economic activity and agricultural activity. Well-managed.

BUY

A very good entry point to buy and hold. Multiples are 11/12/13 X earnings. Grain outlook looks better. Good play on the North American economy.

DON'T BUY

A little bit fed up with this company. Not quite as well managed as they had hoped. Doesn't seem to be able to take advantage of the moving of commodities.

TOP PICK

Pushing fairly near full capacity. Still have some work to do on their operating ratios. Blue-chip company.

BUY

The commodity boom, particularly in coal and other metals will give them some pricing flexibility.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Under pressure at the moment so may be a good time to buy. Seems to bounce off $30 which would be a good price to buy at.

BUY

Not accompany you normally get excited about. Having been growing earnings like mad and not the best Co. out there, but at a good price..

PAST TOP PICK

(A past top pick Jan 22/04. Down 11.5%) A lot of the rails are down. A general play on North American activity. Very cheap and still likes.

WEAK BUY

CN is more attractively priced. Take a look at CN. Dont know outlook for grain market.

BUY

Transportation business should be quite good. Likes both CP & CNR but favors CP which has dropped in price and should have more upside.

BUY

The strong Cdn$ has hurt their earnings. Fuel costs have also cut in to their profitability. Feels the earnings will start to turn around. Should benefit from the stronger economy.

BUY

Well-run. Stumbled in their last quarter but think it was a one quarter blip. They make a lot of money moving commodities. Good price.

WEAK BUY

It's OK, but they prefer Canadian National because of the quality of management and the US exposure.

BUY

Have had trouble controlling their costs. Top line growth was good. US investors are presently more focused on US rails because of thermal coal. Not expensive.
