Last week, a tentative deal was announced between unions and the railroad companies averting a national strike that could have seen 125,000 railroad workers go on strike. It also avoided a major economic disruption at a time when a recession remains a real possibility. Since the announcement of the deal on the morning of Sept. 15, railroad stocks are generally lower. Part of the reason for investor apathy around railroad stocks may be that the White House-brokered deal could still fall apart if one of the 12 unions involved fails to ratify a new contract. Essential details in the agreement have yet to be ironed out. Some union leaders feel the agreement’s language was intentionally vague so as not to back the railroads into a corner on various issues such as sick leave and unsafe working conditions. However, as a rule, railroad stocks tend to be good long-term investments. Berkshire Hathaway’s (NYSE: BRK-B ) $26.7 billion purchase of Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad in February 2010 has certainly proven prosperous.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — CSX has hired an auto industry executive to lead the railroad after its current CEO retires. Jacksonville, Florida-based CSX Corp. said Thursday that Joe Hinrichs will take over from Jim Foote at the end of this month. Hinrichs previously served as president of Ford Motor Co.’s global auto business. Hinrichs said in an interview with The Associated Press he’s very excited that CSX and the other major railroads were able to reach a tentative contract agreement Thursday with unions to prevent a potentially devastating national strike. “Our employees are going to get a well-deserved raise after working so hard the last couple years through the pandemic,” Hinrichs said. “We’re excited about moving from here. Now we can move our conversation into how do we work together to grow the business and better serve our customers.” The railroads have been plagued with delivery delays that prompted shippers to complain loudly this year about poor service . Federal regulators got involved and ordered the railroads to address the problems.
CSX said its future CEO brings a deep understanding of the manufacturing and energy sectors, both critical customer bases for the eastern railroad.

US Railroads Enact "Contingency Plans," Preparing For Labor Strike As Union Talks Fail Railroads and labor unions worked through the weekend to make a deal. There were little signs of progress, and rail companies are now taking steps Monday to secure shipments of hazardous and security-sensitive materials "in light of the possibility of a rail labor strike," the Association of American Railroads (AAR) wrote in a statement. On Sunday, Norfolk Southern released a statement detailing it had "begun enacting its contingency plans for a controlled shut down of our network at 00:01 on Friday, Sept. 16." The railroad said two labor unions are holding out on new contracts, "we still do not have a commitment not to strike and must act accordingly," adding, "Our goal is to ensure that in the event of a work stoppage, crews, equipment, and freight safely reach their destinations with minimal disruption." Union Pacific and CSX also announced contingency plans for a possible work stoppage. BNSF told customers to call Congress so lawmakers on Capitol Hill can "intervene to prevent or quickly resolve the service disruption" if a labor strike materializes on Friday.
Futures Jump As Dollar Slide Accelerates It appears that Goldman''s trading desk was right again. Just days after the vampire squid''s sellside researchers were warning that the market has not yet bottomed, the bank''s far more accurate flow traders said that " The Pain Trade Is Now Up, The CPI Doesn''t Matter At All, And The Q4 Chase Starts Early ", and on Monday morning it was all engines go in global stock markets, with US equities poised to extend their brisk rally from last week as investors braced for the final CPI before the Federal Reserve’s September decision. Futures for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 both rose 0.5% each at 715 a.m. in New York, extending above their Friday session highs, putting the underlying gauges on track for a fourth day of gains, while Europe''s Stoxx 600 index climbed for a third day, and Asia was almost all green. Treasury yields dropped and the dollar retreated further as traders bet inflation is near peaking even as Fed talking heads ramped up hawkish rhetoric (it''s ok, the Fed is always 9-12 months behind the curve).
LOS ANGELES — Major U.S. freight railroads said on Friday they were preparing for a possible strike and service disruption a week before a deadline in protracted labor talks.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Major freight railroads, in a bid to apply pressure on unions and Congress, say a strike that could come after a key deadline passes next week would cost the economy more than $2 billion a day and disrupt deliveries of all kinds of goods and passenger traffic nationwide. The Association of American Railroads trade group issued a report estimating the dire consequences of a strike Thursday, one day after U.S. Labor Secretary Marty Walsh took part in talks to try and help hammer out an agreement. A strike or lockout won’t be allowed until next Friday at the soonest under the federal that governs railroad negotiations. Five of the 12 unions involved that together represent some 115,000 workers have announced tentative agreements covering over 21,000 workers based on a set of recommendations that a special panel appointed by President Joe Biden made last month, but several key unions are holding out in the hope that the railroads will agree to go beyond those recommendations and address some of their concerns about working conditions.

The railroad industry has caught the market’s attention lately as the federal regulator, the Surface Transportation Board (STB), highlighted issues and suggested ways to revitalize the country’s freight services. Notably, the U.S. freight railroad industry is dominated by a few big players, including Union Pacific Corporation (NYSE:UNP), CSX Corporation (NASDAQ:CSX), and Norfolk Southern Corporation (NYSE:NSC). Interestingly, these companies are part of the portfolios of some prominent U.S. politicians as well. The Chairman of STB, Martin Oberman, hinted that the railroad industry is plagued with supply-chain issues. These headwinds are the byproduct of companies reducing their human resources to stay profitable in the business over the years.
