Canadian National Railway: Better Traffic And Productivity, But Valuation Is Still Too Steep

Canadian National Railway is seeing improved freight volumes, higher revenue per RTM, and enhanced productivity, supporting better incremental margins. I maintain a hold rating as valuation appears stretched, and I require clearer evidence of sustained low-to-mid-teens adj. EPS growth for an upgrade. Management raised 2026 guidance to low-single-digit RTM growth and mid-to-high-single-digit adj. EPS growth, citing strong grain, energy, and intermodal prospects.

Canadian National Railway : The Ticket Is No Longer Cheap (Rating Downgrade)

Canadian National Railway delivered strong 2Q26 results, driven by operational excellence and surges in energy and grain volumes. I downgrade CNI to 'hold' from 'buy' as the valuation discount has diminished, with a new $126 price target based on 22x FY26 earnings. Much of the recent growth stemmed from temporary factors such as record grain crops and fuel surcharges, unlikely to be sustained in the long run.

Canadian National Railway: The Track Ahead Is Clearing Up

Canadian National Railway delivered strong Q2 2026 results, with revenue up 11% and EPS up 10%, prompting raised full-year guidance.
