Google (GOOG) PT Goes to $850 at Needham & Company

Needham & Company raised its price target on Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) from $825 to $850 post Q4 results.

Analyst Kerry Rice comments, "Solid Q4 results exceeded expectations and reassured investors that Google’s core-Search business, especially on Google’s own websites, continues to perform well. CPCs and TAC are showing signs of stability. Looking forward, we expect the core business to garner more credit in coming months with Motorola Home out of the picture and the reduced impact of Motorola Mobile."
