What Wall Street Has Been Saying

🐂 Bullish Takeaways

Recent price target raises on CN by Jefferies to US$130 and by BofA to US$117 highlight how some analysts still see value in physical, long lived infrastructure, described by Jefferies as "Heavy Assets with Low Obsolescence." CIBC moved its CN target to C$154 and kept an Outperformer stance, while Citi maintained a Buy rating alongside its revised US$119 target, signalling continued interest where analysts are comfortable with execution and balance sheet quality.

🐻 Bearish Takeaways

In early February, several firms, including Scotiabank, RBC Capital, TD Cowen, Stephens, Citi and Barclays, cut CN price targets. This pointed to a more cautious tone on upside and a closer focus on capital discipline and earnings risk. UBS downgraded CN on the same day those target changes came through. This reinforced that part of the street is more guarded on growth and is applying tighter scrutiny to valuations for capital intensive transport names.
