Dougherty & Co upgraded Garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ: GRMN) from Neutral to Buy with a price target of $47.00.

Analyst, Charlie Anderson, said, "Upgrading based on valuation, as we believe the stock was unfairly punished Monday after Apple’s (Nasdaq: AAPL) well-telegraphed unveiling of turn-by-turn navigation for iOS devices."

Anderson said that Apple's new Map app is impressive and looks easy to use (tied in with Siri), however, the context of the headwind to Garmin is equal to about $0-$3 per share. Garmin feel $3.58 yesterday (and is moving up today). Bottomline: Shares of GRMN are oversold.
