Swine flu is still the big buzz on Wednesday, though big gainers for the week Novavax (NVAX) and BioCryst (BCRX) were both plunging on Wednesday morning. Novavax was down 13.5% to $2.75, and BioCryst was losing 18.2% to $3.42.

The three major indices were in the green, as were bank stocks such as Bank of America (BAC), up 6.5% to $8.68, and Citigroup (C), up 8% to $3.12, after analysts at Fox-Pitt Kelton Cochran Caronia Waller upgraded the sector.

With this in mind, we thought we'd take a look at some of the stocks making headlines recently and see what Jim Cramer's had to say about them.
