There have been two standout research calls this morning in two of the darlings of tech and internet investors.  Goldman Sachs, in a broader technology group call, put a Conviction Buy List rating on Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) along with a new share price target of $430.00 per share.  Wedbush Morgan Raised Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) to “Outperform” from Neutral and assigned a $750.00 price target objective.

There were other less noticed calls.  Goldman Sachs was also positive on EMC Corporation (NYSE: EMC) with a Buy rating and $27 price target.  The call was bad for PC-makers: Dell Inc. (NASDAQ: DELL) and Hewlett-Packard Co. (NYSE: HPQ) were both given SELL ratings.  Dell’s target is $10 and $38 was given as a target for H-P.

As far as how the $430.00 target of Apple compares, that is a call for 34% upside from Friday’s $320.56 close.  For Google, the $750 Wedbush target implies about 26% upside from the $592.21 close on Friday.
