CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company own transportation companies. The Railroad, along with its subsidiaries and rail affiliates, is its reportable operating segment.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

A Warren Buffet Pick
Long term dividend pick
peak oil play.
As fuel prices continue to increase, so does the economics of scale in transportation. As trucking companies increase their prices to recoup the cost of fuel, the major train companies will see increased business.

The floods are going to hurt. When the infrastructure surfaces again... and it ain't yet in a great many places... then the rebuild is going to affect the bottom line TOO. Less traffic, less crops (big product and cash stream for these guys) and less profit as the equation of the coming recession fears add more to the price of everthing. OVER A LONG period I would love to be holding UNP from a low of last year to now (at which point, I assure you, I would be selling like a maniac!!! Oh, and that too is going to scare the price out of this issue, as people DO exactly that too.) But from this lofty perch of $77 we are going to see a pretty good pull back over the next four weeks maybe 8. Short for a short time, maybe three month max. If the market stays bearish, maybe to the end of the year.

UNP will take a hit in the short term. They are looking to speed up their expansion plans - but have taken some hits due to the flooding in that part of the country,

They carry a low debt to equity, relative to others in the market. Increasing EPS over the past 5 years.

UNP seems to have stalled out, and is sitting on the border of our buy indicators. We're going to buy - the momentum on the sector appears to be strong.
