Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on LinkedIn (NYSE: LNKD) price target raised from $85 to $95.

Analyst, Michael Graham, said, "LinkedIn reported strong Q4 results highlighted by strength in several key underlying metrics, and guidance for 2012 shows increased confidence. LinkedIn takes another step on the path toward becoming the default global hiring solution...We are raising our revenue and adjusted EPS estimates for 2012 from $849.7M to $903.3M and $0.47 to $0.67...While LNKD stock is expensive on near-term estimates, we believe longer-term (2013-2016E) operating leverage makes valuation more attractive."
