With a market cap of $132.6 billion, Union Pacific Corporation (UNP) is the largest railroad operator in North America. Through its principal subsidiary, Union Pacific Railroad Company, it provides rail transportation services across 23 U.S. states, connecting key Pacific and Gulf Coast ports with the Midwest and eastern gateways.
Companies valued at $10 billion or more are generally considered "large-cap" stocks, and Union Pacific fits this criterion perfectly. It serves a wide range of industries, transporting agricultural products, automotive goods, chemicals, coal, industrial products, and intermodal containers. Union Pacific also links with Canada’s rail systems and uniquely serves all six major gateways to Mexico.
