Raymond James has revised its price target for Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CP, Financial), reducing it to $115 from a previous target of $130 while maintaining an Outperform rating. This adjustment reflects a less optimistic outlook for the Canadian railroad sector in 2025, driven by rising macroeconomic uncertainties.
Earlier this year, Canadian Pacific Kansas City experienced volatility in its first-quarter traffic, primarily due to a severe freeze in February. Even though both Canadian Pacific Kansas City and CN (CNI) managed to recover swiftly and conclude the quarter positively, this temporary improvement has not been enough to bolster confidence in future performance. Analysts suggest that the broader economic uncertainties are overshadowing these gains, leading to the revised outlook.
