QUOTE: Originally posted by MP173 CN. Purchased Illinois Central stock years ago. Generally, I do not consider purchasing railroad stocks at this time as they do not meet general financial criteria such as ROE, ROIC, and free cash flow that I have established for owning companies. If I could buy at a steep discount, which would meet the financial thresholds on the above items, I would. But, at a steep discount. Emotions such not enter into stock ownership. Just the facts. ed
