Garmin (GRMN)Thursday morning, GPS specialist Garmin Ltd. (GRMN) said it lost a patent dispute with Japanese firm Pioneer Corp. The District Court of Dusseldorf in Germany found that two patents owned by Pioneer were infringed by a certain functionality in Garmin’s software.

However, Garmin says it has already worked out “minor software revisions that eliminate the narrow functionality at issue in the litigation.” As a result, the company doesn’t expect any significant impact on its ability to import and sell its navigational products.

Lennar Corp. (LEN) just can’t seem to win much respect on Wall Street. Despite well-known fundamental issues within the housing sector, LEN has tallied a year-to-date advance of roughly 35% — easily topping the 11.4% gain collected by the S&P 500 Index (SPX).

Wall Street seems less than impressed by this technical outperformance, though. Earlier today, S&P Equity downgraded the stock to hold from strong buy, joining six other analysts who maintain a tepid rating on the shares.

Lululemon Athletica logoLululemon Athletica (LULU) will take its turn in the earnings confessional bright and early tomorrow morning, Dec. 9. Analysts are expecting the athletic apparel firm to report a third-quarter profit of 25 cents per share, up from 20 cents per share in the year-ago period. LULU has an impressive track record in the earnings spotlight, having exceeded Wall Street’s consensus profit expectations in each of the past four quarters.

The stock has also established itself as a technical outperformer, with LULU rising 82.5% so far in 2010. This impressive ascent has been underlined by reliable support at the stock’s 10-week, 20-week, and 50-week moving averages, which have guided LULU higher since July 2009.

Television titan TiVo (TIVO) will step into the earnings spotlight after tonight’s closing bell, with Wall Street looking for a third-quarter loss of 17 cents per share — wider than TiVo’s year-ago deficit of 6 cents per share. The firm has been on a hot streak with its quarterly reports, having exceeded analysts’ consensus earnings expectations in each of the last three reporting periods.

However, the equity’s technical performance isn’t quite so impressive. The shares took a dive earlier this month after TiVo’s patent dispute with EchoStar (SATS) and Dish Network (DISH) took an ugly turn in the courtroom, and the stock has yet to recover.
