Baidu's

(BIDU) - Get Report

price target has been raised by

Goldman Sachs

(GS) - Get Report

to $675 from $575, following

Google's

(GOOG) - Get Report

decision to move out of China and begin redirecting Web traffic to Hong Kong.

Analysts believes the Chinese government will limit access to Google's Hong Kong search engine, which could in turn help boost Baidu's traffic. Goldman Sachs believes that Baidu will be able to obtain 33% to 75% of Google.cn traffic.
