Markets react positively to Garmin INSTINCT 3 launch
More: Garmin Instinct 3 Review – full and detailed
As you can see from the charts above, the NASDAQ (a better comparator than the NYSE, where Garmin is listed) trended down today by about 1.8%, while Garmin stock rose slightly. This two percentage point difference is significant and reflects the market’s positive sentiment about Garmin’s launches today, which include the Instinct 3, Instinct E, HRM-200, and the Zumo R1 smart motorbike Radar.
Even though I have expressed some negative thoughts today regarding missing features, lack of maps and more, the markets think Garmin has nailed it with these new products.
