Web Extra: In “Go Off The Rails” the Fast Money traders take on a newspaper’s analysis of rail stocks. Which newspaper?

The New York Times questioned whether rail shares are now overloaded in Sunday’s paper. Find out how the traders respond in Monday’s Web Extra.

The New York Times (NYT) scores horribly in the models I use. Its earnings quality is average, but it ranks among the worst for earnings momentum, price momentum, free cash flow and return potential. Meanwhile, pricing power indicates that the railroad stocks may have further to go.
