Still the same value premise based on my earlier post for RAIL dated 7/30/2016.

My plan is/was to take 30% of my TRN gains and put into RAIL at/below $13.50/share. Of the three GBX probably is the most undervalued based on the GN valuation. I like RAIL for their new factory that they are configuring for new robot technology. It's also a small cap when compared to GBX and TRN.

I like to hold TRN & RAIL for at least 12 months so as to book long term capital gains. As a result, I try to stagger my value buys through out the year and start those buys when optimal risk/reward presents it's self. That usually means buying at/near all time lows.

Unfortunately, GBX is well off it's all time low and maybe on any significant market correction, I may be able to make a a value BUY at that time.

It's hard to time these buys but usually they occur on/after market corrections. A basket of all three; RAIL, TRN & GBX would be a good hold. Weighting that basket with more undervalued shares and selling the fair valued shares is the strategy I like to follow.

Then once all buy positions are completed, it is just time (18-24 months) before we get back to some level of fair value (usually depends on economic cycle too). I can then begin to harvest the capital gains after 12 months if the investment works out.
