User request to have a SharePoint 2013 list hyperlink column to open in a new tab.  

The code (my hyperlink is the 4th column in the list) that worked even when going to page 2 in the list view:

$(function() {
        var $t;

        var interval = setInterval(function() {
            $t = $("table.ms-listviewtable>tbody tr td:nth-child(4) a");

            $t.each(function(){
              $(this).attr("target", "_blank");
            });
        }, 1000);
    });
