What is CNI's fair price?

Two classic value formulas, with today's numbers. The current price is $117.16.

Graham's fair price: —; CNI's earnings per share and book value per share are not available, so the formula cannot be computed.

Benjamin Graham paid no more than a P/E of 15 and a P/B of 1.5. Their product, 22.5, times earnings (EPS) and book value per share gives the fair price.
