$NSC Now that UP has reached an agreement with NS, It seems Warren Buffett will surely be interested in CSX , just to remain competitive with UP. Owning stocks in both CSX and NS seems like a very smart investment now.

$CSX I added CSX shares this week because CSX cannot compete against the Union Pacific/Norfolk Southern merger. It would be prudent for CSX to be acquired by a competitor. I especially like how this news comes out minutes before the close lol. $UNP $NSC

$NSC $CSX These deals aren't getting much premium. You might get $4-5 on CSX. If a trader can buy many thousands of shares and hit it, great, but it's for a Wall Street trader with info.... if it doesn't happen, you're stuck for years like with $BP!
