  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.28 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Garmin Ltd moved 0.28% on average · correlation 0.08 · higher than 27% of US names

  • On the 10 worst bond days +1.00% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days +2.59% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Company snapshot — Garmin Ltd

GRMN in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Garmin makes GPS-enabled hardware and software across several markets: fitness and outdoor wearables, marine electronics such as chartplotters and sonar, aviation avionics including flight displays and traffic-avoidance systems, and automotive and fleet products. It also runs Garmin Connect, a platform where users track fitness and activity data, and Connect IQ, which lets outside developers build apps for its devices. It is based in Schaffhausen, Switzerland, and sells through independent dealers and distributors worldwide.
Where it sits in the stack
Garmin sits outside the AI build-out stack our indices track; it belongs to the wider technology sector under scientific and technical instruments, making consumer and professional hardware rather than data-centre or chip infrastructure.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group carries no seat for Garmin; the market often places it beside Apple in wearables, though Garmin's spread across aviation, marine and automotive systems sets it apart from a single consumer rival.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
Garmin holds no seat in our indices and does not yet carry a Closelooknet score; the diary follows it as a technology-sector name sitting outside the AI build-out stack rather than inside it.
What the diary watches
Whether demand across its wearable, marine and aviation lines moves together or diverges, since that spread is what makes its results harder to read as a single trend.
