Based on the amount of people writing about it, it must be important. I wish I understood all this shit at a time like this, but Fred helps clear it up a little with this post . Looks like Google has recognized this pie as a monster outside search that it must compete aggressively. I …

Garmin Blinks…In a Good Way
Garmin (GRMN) had me nervous. I had bought a bunch of stock back at $90 and I was not sure how they perceived their own future with the bidding war for Tele-Atlas. The market was pissed. Garmin has now passed on the bidding war and the stock is up $18. Looks like the trend is …
Garmin Admits They Are Scared
By making an insanely large late bid for Tele-Atlas , Garmin has shown their hand. They are telling the big institutions that they are desperate for the digital mapmaking relationships and are willing to pay up to keep them. With Navteq (NVT) now gone to Nokia, obviously Garmin (GRMN) management felt that they were vulnerable. …
Sold Garmin
Just blew out of the Garmin I added last week below $100. I guess Navteq/Nkia does not put them out of business :) . Disclosure- Long Garmin and NVT
Garmin…Chaching?
So I had a nice/lucky sale of Garmin and swap into Trimble last week for a win/win . Now Garmin is down over $20 bucks and below $100 on the Navteq/Nokia merger. I am adding some of the Garmin back I sold at $118. Market looks to be panicking here. Nokia could buy Garmin and …
Easing on Garmin (GRMN)…GPS has been Smokin'
What a run. Sold some at the open at $118. What a freaking homerun stock. Check it out . I will happily take some more profits in a double from May. NVT also now above $70 so it looks like Trimble (TRMB) could have a huge run left in it. Disclosure – Long GRMN, NVT, …
Microsoft…two other acquisitions they should make…GARMIN and TASER
Garmin and Taser…the possibilities! Microsoft as software is it’s own boring dwindling economy, but Microsoft has the power to make Taser the weapon of choice in law enforcement and legitimize it through the lobbysists. Garmin is another tech consumer play they can afford and should make to get them in autos and back strong in …
GPS Trend – Updating Digital Maps
It’s happening and it’s still early. Tom Tom is really pushing but it’s good for everybody . Hoping for major weakness in my fave names as I have been a seller of late of NVT and Garmin (see last few weeks). Disclosure – Long Garmin and Navteq
Garmin and Navteq on Wallstrip
These two beauties are no strangers to my blog. I love both companies, but you CAN’T and SHOULD NOT chase. Today on Wallstrip, we take a look at Garmin and Navteq. A few things I noticed from today’s show: 1. Nobody really owns GPS units and few people have heard of Garmin or Navteq. 2. …
Garmin (GRMN) in the 'G' in GPS
Next to Apple, the single most blogged topic on my blog has been the GPS trend (many Garmin posts). Today, Garmin, which I am long, has gapped up another 12 percent to a new all-time high. It is tres expensive and always will be. I won’t chase extra stock into this strength but happy I …
