Standpoint Research maintains a 'Buy' on Western Digital Corp. (NYSE: WDC) price target raised from $42 to $48.

Analyst, Ronnie Moas, said, "I expect WDC to take out an all-time high, and run past that all-time high in the next few quarters...There has been quite a bit of good news coming from WDC recently and estimates for 2012 and 2013 are rising...The Q4 results and guidance from 24-January were excellent...This stock does not usually get a high multiple on earnings and there are reasons for this detailed in the attached report. That being said, 6.5X $6 in EPS potential for next year is too low and I am looking for 8X in the next few months."
