COMMENT

A duopoly. Good pricing power. Everyone worrying about an economic contraction has affected stock price. Had a couple of bad quarters in a row but are turning it around.

BUY

Very good stock but has been weakened in this latest downturn. Dow Jones transports broke down today, which is not a very good sign. From a pure valuation play this one looks very good. Loadings have been very strong.

DON'T BUY

Hasn't been performing that well. Any holdings he had was switched into Canadian National (CNR-T). A bulk carrier and will suffer if we have slower growth. Got ahead of itself.

DON'T BUY

Has had numerous operational problems with flooding and whether. Operating ratio has ballooned up. Prefers Canadian National (CNR-T) whose operating ratio is in the low 60's. Good entry point for CN now.

COMMENT

Canadian National (CNR-T) or Canadian Pacific (CP-T)? With an expected bump on the stock tomorrow, should the caller sell his CNR and switch? He has considered the same thing but CN is still delivering the better earnings. He would continue to hold.

WAIT

The problem is that their costs are going up because of fuel. Economy is ok, but growth is not keeping pace with increasing cost of fuel. Also they have to pour money into their pension plan. The driver will be interest rates. If interest rates go up 1%, they can stop pouring money into pension plan.

BUY

Affected by heavy snows in the winter and flooding in the spring. Prefers Canadian National (CNR-T) on a longer-term basis. Big difference in their operating ratios. Both are good companies.

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.
