COMMENT

Canadian National (CNR-T) or Canadian Pacific (CP-T)? CP, the smaller railroad, is commodity oriented. On the longer term, CNR is the great railroad of Canada and this is the one he would own.

BUY

It’s a western Canadian play in grains and coal, which Asia needs and wants. He likes it. He is moving back more into CN after owning both.

COMMENT

Doesn't own it because it is more of a commodity carrier than anything and it depends on how the economy works out. When demand from China starts to rebuild he likes the outlook for them. Would like to get it 5%-10% cheaper.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Short July 29/08. Up 36.1%.) Still concerned about this one and wouldn't own it. He covered his Short.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Prefers Canadian National (CNR-T) because it is a better run company. Rails have done very well considering they were supposed to be in an economic downturn. With production being down and all the other things it is hard to conceive that they can continue doing well. Would like to see a pullback before buying.

HOLD

This is fine but she prefers Canadian National (CNR-T). Volumes are looking stronger. Have done a better job of cost control.

DON'T BUY

Canadian National (CNR-T) versus Canadian Pacific (CP-T)? Canadian National but don't buy either until the 2nd quarter earnings come out. Expects a very rough quarter.

DON'T BUY

Corrected on the economic slowdown. If you wanted to Buy on a true market correction, you should always go to the better company, which in this case would be Canadian National (CNR-T).

DON'T BUY

(Market Call Minute.) Would be careful on this one because it is so economically sensitive and so dependent on bulk shipping.

SELL

This sector is still in contraction. Doesn't see any improvement in rail volume numbers.

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.
