Beta is a statistical measure... it measures the correlation between two series of numbers. In this case it is the relationship between Garmin and the general Stock market. A beta of 1.0 means that if the market goes up 10%, then the stock would move up 10%. A beta of 2.0 means that if the market goes down 10%, that a stock tends to go down 20%.
