Deutsch said that as soon as a brand starts to feel like that of the acquiring company, the charm has worn off. He said he likes Coke's acquisition of Vitamin Water and Clorox's (CLX - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) Burt's Bees purchase.

With a major oncology conference coming up, Najarian said Celgene (CELG - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) is a name to keep an eye on. He also told investors to take a look at Medarex (MDRX - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) and Genentech (DNA - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr).

The Recession View

To talk about the overall economy, Zach Karabell, president of River Twice Research, joined the show. He said the recession, whether it's here or not, is not affecting Americans' desire to buy flat-screen TVs, and this plays into Corning (GLW - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr). Adami agreed that Corning is a good stock to own.

Karabell also said that Americans are vacationing domestically. He said this means Disney's (DIS - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) parks should benefit. Macke agreed, saying Disney is "crushing." Karabell was more skeptical of a Las Vegas casino trade in this environment.
