Yum Brands (YUM):Yum is p 20% since the rat incident in a Greenwich Village Taco Bell, and Cramer agrees with Deutsche Bank's upgrade of the company, because KFC is "the dominant food in China." He predicts Yum will reach $76 from $66.83.

Nastech (NSTK), Acadia (ACAD), Sanofi (SNY): On the subject of the upcoming week's biotech conferences, Cramer says he likes Nastech for its obesity drug and Acadia for its Parkinsons and schizophrenia treatments. He would trade Sanofi off of the FDA's decision on its weight loss treatment, since the FDA is "under great pressure" on the growing obesity problem.

JUNE 10TH, 2007 *CRAMER LIKES NASTECH'S OBESITY DRUG BUT MARCH 3, 2006 Nastech Pharmaceutical (NSTK) dropped over 35% yesterday because Merck terminated its involvement NSTK's inhalable obesity drug. SO IS THE REPUTATION, AND CREDITABILITY OF MERCK IN QUESTION FOR DROPPING NASTECH'S OBESITY DRUG?
They gave it up because of why? Too busy with other drugs, or can't use the money if it's successful, or couldn't be bothered with it? Now they have P&G but they delayed their payments to NSTK in December for 9-12 months
which isn't what shareholders want to hear. I mean the future is today not 2-3-5 years from now!
I'm sorry but the wrong message is being sent to shareholders and potential new shareholders because of his celebrity status, don't you think. LOOK AT THE COMPANIES STATISTICS, SALES,DEBT,RETURN ON EQUITY,
MONEY IN THE BANK, QUARTERLY GROWTH, ETC., THEY ARE DISMAL. THEY ARE OVER FINANCED TO THE TILT!
1 IN A HALF YEARS AGO ON CRAMERS SHOW, HE STATED A NEGATIVE ABOUT NSTK AND DIDN'T RECOMMEND IT,
SO WHAT'S THE SUDDEN OBSESSION? THE KEY IS WHERE WILL THE PRICE BE AT THE VERY END OF DECEMBER 2007 WITH THEIR RIDICULOUS EARNINGS REPORT!
