NSC Stock Recent News
NSC LATEST HEADLINES
Weekend progress toward resolving the trade spat between the United States and China has markets rallying, and railroad stocks are among the big winners.
Compound interest is a marvel that all too often goes unappreciated. Today's article will cover a Class I railroad operator, a major water and gas utility, and a leading provider of building and weatherproofing products. Relative to my fair value estimates, these companies are undervalued by 8% to 17%.
My portfolio is outperforming the market, but I remain cautious. The rally has masked risks, and valuations are far from attractive. Despite optimism, trade tensions, inflation fears, and weak capital spending signal that economic risks are rising, not fading. That's why I'm turning to transportation. It's overlooked, undervalued, and historically a key signal for lasting market recoveries.
