  • Canadian National Railway: An 11% Dip Makes This TSX Dividend Stock a Long-Term Buy
    January 29, 2026, 9:20 PM EST. Canadian National Railway (TSX:CNR) shares have dropped about 11% from last year's highs, trading near $135 amid operational disruptions and trade uncertainties. Despite challenges including 2024 labour strikes, wildfires, and reduced earnings, CN remains profitable and is using excess cash for share buybacks. Its 29-year record of dividend growth highlights resilience. The company's adjusted earnings growth guidance for 2025 was lowered due to U.S. tariff uncertainties, with final results expected in January 2026. Long-term growth prospects rest on economic expansion in Canada and the U.S., ongoing capital investments, and potential trade agreement resolutions. Investors eye CN for income and total returns as a solid holding amid current market headwinds.
