Bulls say

Canadian National Railway reported a revenue of CAD 17 billion in 2024, with diverse contributions from intermodal containers (22%), petroleum and chemicals (20%), and grain and fertilizers (20%). The company's earnings per share (EPS) increased by 1% year-over-year to $1.87, aligning with consensus expectations, while management noted an impressive 11% boost in labor productivity driven by recent investments and operational adjustments. Additionally, the positive outlook for the Grain & Fertilizer segment, with an estimate increase to 5%, suggests resilience despite anticipated declines in Canadian grain production, positioning the company favorably in the market.

Bears say

Canadian National Railway's year-to-date earnings per share (EPS) growth of 4% falls significantly short of management's previous guidance range of 10% to 15%, indicating emerging operational challenges. The company's recent guidance cut reflects heightened concerns over an uncertain trade policy environment, which may inhibit revenue robustness moving forward. Together with the lower 2026 EPS estimate driving a price target adjustment, these factors contribute to a negatively slanted outlook on the stock's future performance.
