In the report, Canaccord Genuity noted, “We are initiating coverage of Rockwell Collins (COL) with a HOLD rating and a $68 price target. We believe long term ARINC and the greater commercial exposure will be a positive, but near term softness in business jet and defense markets offset potential positives.
