In the current session, CSX Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSX#NASDAQ">CSX</a>) is trading at $32.35, after a 3.83% decrease. Over the past month, the stock decreased by 2.68%, and in the past year, by 14.62%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<h3>Evaluating CSX P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
CSX has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 44.82 of the Ground Transportation industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued.

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

Recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43420421/marco-rubios-panama-visit-will-trumps-aggressive-rhetoric-lead-to-war-or-diplomacy">statements</a> by President Donald Trump regarding potential changes in the status of the Panama Canal have raised concerns about possible impacts on various stocks and exchange-traded funds. After all, some 4% of global trade passes through the canal, with more than 70% of that traffic bound for or coming from the U.S., <a href="https://www.wsj.com/world/americas/china-panama-canal-development-what-it-means-7c5dc870">according</a> to the Wall Street Journal.
What Happened: On Sunday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned Panama&#8217;s President José Raúl Mulino that Washington will &#8220;take measures necessary&#8221; if Panama does not immediately take steps to put an end to what Trump&nbsp;considers China&#8217;s influence and control over the Panama Canal.
Following the talks with Rubio, who is on a tour of Central America, Mulino signaled he would review agreements involving China and Chinese businesses. Since Trump took office, he has reiterated his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42639737/trumps-call-to-reclaim-panama-canal-sparks-backlash-every-square-meter-belongs-to-panama-says-president-mulino" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">threat to forcibly retake the Panama Canal</a>, which generates some $2.5 billion in annual revenue for Panama.
As a critical conduit for international maritime trade, any changes to its operations could naturally affect companies involved in shipping, logistics and transportation.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Which Companies Might Be Affected? Quite A Few</h1>
Let's start with the shipping-owning company SFL Corporation Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SFL#NYSE">SFL</a>), which is engaged in the ownership and operation of vessels and offshore-related assets. There are two others that could see changes: Costamare Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMRE#NYSE">CMRE</a>), which owns and charters container ships, and Navios Maritime Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NMPGY#NYSE">NMPGY</a>), an international owner and operator of dry cargo vessels.
Next, we have the railway companies that provide freight services across the U.S. These include CSX Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSX#NASDAQ">CSX</a>), Norfolk Southern Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSC#NYSE">NSC</a>), Union Pacific Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNP#NYSE">UNP</a>), Canadian Pacific Kansas City Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CP#NYSE">CP</a>) and the Canadian National Railway Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNI#NYSE">CNI</a>).
Now let's look at the ETFs that focus on all of the above — shipping, air freight and the courier industries.
U.S. Global Sea to Sky Cargo (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEA#NYSE">SEA</a>), Breakwave Dry Bulk Shipping (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDRY#NYSE">BDRY</a>) provides exposure to the daily change in the price of dry bulk freight futures and SPRD S&amp;P Transportation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XTN#NYSE">XTN</a>), which represents the transportation segment of the S&amp;P Total Market Index ("S&amp;P TMI") designed to&nbsp;track the broad U.S. equity market.

If You Invested $100 In This Stock 15 Years Ago, You Would Have This Much Today

CSX's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSX#NYSE">CSX</a>) short percent of float has fallen 6.9% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 31.08 million shares sold short, which is 1.62% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.28 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>CSX Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1738260014_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for CSX has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing CSX's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, CSX's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.20%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Wall Street paused for a breather on Friday, with the S&amp;P 500 index hovering around the flatline at midday trading in New York after a five-day rally that pushed the market to fresh record highs this week. Meanwhile, investor attention shifted to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/forex">forex and gold markets.</a>
The greenback is experiencing its worst weekly performance since July 2023, as President Donald Trump refrained from imposing new tariffs during his first week and escalated pressure on the Federal Reserve, urging the central bank to lower interest rates. The U.S. dollar index – tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>) – dropped 0.7% on Friday, extending its weekly decline to 1.7%.
Adding to the dollar's downward momentum, the Bank of Japan raised interest rates by 25 basis points to 0.5%, the highest level since 2008, in a move that broadly met expectations.
Gold capitalized on the dollar's weakness and rising tensions between the president and the central bank, marking another week of strong gains and approaching all-time highs. The bullion, tracked by the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>), was trading at $2,777 per ounce.
On the macro front, S&amp;P Global reported a slowdown in private sector growth in January, as the services sector faced an unexpected setback, despite manufacturing expanding for the first<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43195427/us-services-growth-slows-manufacturing-finally-expands-in-january-inflation-was-broad-based-expert-warns"> time in seven months.</a>
A warning came from the University of Michigan's consumer survey, which downwardly revised the January consumer confidence indicator and pointed to increasing trends of households making purchases in advance to avoid potential price hikes <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43197024/consumer-confidence-declines-as-buying-in-advance-trends-grow">linked to tariffs.</a>
In the cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) climbed 2.5% following Trump's executive order signed on Thursday, aimed at strengthening U.S. leadership in digital assets.

Raymond James Reiterates Outperform on CSX, Lowers Price Target to $37

CSX Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSX#NASDAQ">CSX</a>) tanked in early trading on Friday, after the company reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43178919/csx-stock-dips-after-mixed-q4-results-details">disappointing fourth-quarter revenues</a>.
The company reported its quarterly results amid an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">exciting earnings season</a>. Here are some key analyst takeaways.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">BMO Capital Markets On CSX</h1>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/586f95cc72b34c0001c9b15b/fadi-chamoun">Analyst Fadi Chamoun</a> reiterated an Outperform rating while reducing the price target from $40 to $38.
CSX reported fourth-quarter revenues of around $3.54 billion, down 3.8% year-on-year "despite 1% higher volume, robust pricing in the merchandise segment and stable pricing in intermodal," Chamoun said in a note. The company's results were affected by "lower fuel revenues, unfavorable mix, lower coal commodity prices, and the impact of hurricanes," he added.
Although CSX's adjusted earnings of 42 cents per share came in-line with expectations, it included a tax benefit of $26 million, or 1.5 cents per share, the analyst stated. "Pressures from several transitory items are higher than anticipated and weigh on the near-term outlook," he further wrote.

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58d3cdb7b85e930001808a57/walter-spracklin">Analyst Walter Spracklin</a> maintained a Sector Perform rating while cutting the price target from $34 to $33.
CSX's reports were broadly in-line with expectations, but were impacted by several "operational issues," Spracklin said.
Management warned of a significant year-on-year decline in operating income due to a number of "discreet costs that will hit the company," which include "lower export coal benchmarks, fuel prices, and cycling of favorable fuel surcharge lag, in addition to costs related to major construction projects on the Howard Street Tunnel and Blue Ridge Subdivision," the analyst stated. He lowered the earnings estimate for 2025 from $1.95 per share to $1.86 per share.

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/597a27c4c1f5580001ef5088/patrick-tyler%20brown">Analyst Patrick Tyler Brown</a> reaffirmed an Outperform rating while reducing the price target from $38 to $37.
CSX reported its adjusted earnings at 42 cents per share, representing a 7% year-on-year decline, while missing the revenue expectations, Brown said. The company's full-year earnings were impacted by higher costs, he added.
"While 2024 was fraught with headwinds for CSX, unfortunately it appears that 2025 will be another year with serious hurdles outside management's control," the analyst wrote. The company's ONECSX initiatives could drive stronger revenues, margins, free cash flows and earnings "in out years," he further stated.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Stephens On CSX</h1>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5805f8a2846faa000106ab15/james-schneider">Analyst Daniel Imbro</a> maintained an Overweight rating and price target of $38.
While some downward revision in estimates was expected due to headwinds in the first half of 2025, management commentary "suggests numbers need to come down further than expected," Imbro said. The headwinds may be transitory, and the company's performance is likely to improve in the back half of 2025 and into 2026, he added.
"Additionally, channel checks remain positive on CSX's service performance, which we expect to drive share gains over time (particularly after the Howard Street tunnel is completed)," the analyst wrote.

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/586bcbd7351b9b0001ab7381/benjamin-nolan">Analyst Benjamin Nolan</a> reiterated a Buy rating and price target of $37.
CSX is gearing up for several challenges in the first half of 2025, Nolan said. The company projected an unfavorable impact of $300 million from lower export coal benchmark pricing and fuel prices and $10 million per month of operating income loss from construction projects on the Howard Street Tunnel and Blue Ridge Subdivision, he added.
The company's three-year targets of CAGRs (compounded annual growth rates), of 4%-6% in revenue, 4%-9% in operating income, and 7%-13% in earnings, are based on commodity prices remaining stable for both coal and fuel, the analyst stated. "While headwinds will be largely isolated to the first half of the year, recovery will take time to materialize," he further wrote.
CSX Price Action: Shares of CSX had declined by 2.88% to $32.70 at the time of publication on Friday.
