Google stock to top $1,000: Pro

Google's stock price is headed north of $1,000 per share, Barclays analyst Anthony DiClemente said Thursday.

"I just think when you look at the market, there's a real dearth of large-cap names in technology that are consistently growing revenue at 20 percent, so you could count them on your fingers," he said. "So I really think that there's scarcity value in Google."

Google traded at $913.44 per share, down one-half percent in midday trading. The company will report quarterly earnings after the stock market close.

On CNBC's "Fast Money," DiClemente said that he was "overweight" on shares of Google.

"We do think it's going to $1,000," he added.

DiClemente argued that the valuation in Google was not overextended.

"If you look at next year's Street earnings consensus, and you take 20 times earnings, I don't think that's unreasonable at all for a company growing revenue consistently 20 percent," he said. "You get to $1,066."

DiClemente said that he had assigned moderate value for the company's products, such as Google Glass or its self-driving car.

"Really, our model is conservatively just looking for improvements in terms of the core search business that Google continues to dominate, their dominance on mobile with Android, with YouTube," he added. "And we just think the Street's going to be looking for firming and improvement in pricing of keywords on smartphones and tablets."

Advertising technology was the main driver of Google's steady revenue performance, a factor that continued to draw investors, DiClemente said.

"Trees don't grow to the sky, but this company is coming close in terms of the steadiness of the topline," he added.
