CIBC Capital Markets lowered its price target on Canadian National Railway Co. (CN.TO, CNI) to $157 from $162 (Neutral) and Canadian Pacific Kansas City Ltd. (CP.TO, CP) to $124 from $128 (Outperformer).

"We have adjusted our model to reflect Q1/25 volume trends and to incorporate our revised FX forecast," analyst Kevin Chiang said in a note to clients.

"On average, our Q1/25 EPS estimates for CN and CPKC decline by approximately 5% to reflect the challenging February weather conditions," Chiang said.

"That said, we expect both rails to maintain their 2025 outlooks when they report their first-quarter results."
