n">May 27 (Reuters) - The following were the top stories in The New York Times business pages on Friday. Reuters has not verified these stories and does not vouch for their accuracy.
* Sony Corp confirmed that the damage from Japan's natural disasters in March -- and the havoc dealt to Sony's supply chains in their aftermath -- had forced it to take tax-credit provisions that resulted in a $3.2 billion net loss for the business year just ended. The loss was Sony's biggest deficit in 16 years, and its third in a row.
* Recent technology that identifies varieties of fish by their gene sequences has shown that 20 to 25 percent of seafood products are being mislabeled.
* Authorities say Donald Johnson, a former Nasdaq executive who was working at the exchange's so-called market intelligence desk, used secret corporate information he obtained as a Nasdaq executive to trade illegally, reaping profits of about $750,000. On Thursday, Johnson pleaded guilty to the brazen insider-trading scheme.
* Subsidiaries of Bank of America Corp and Morgan Stanley will pay scores of service members at least $22 million for violating a law on foreclosures.
* The White House is trying to end what U.S. President Barack Obama refers to as "just plain dumb" federal regulations, but not everyone is satisfied with the effort.
* Unlike LinkedIn Corp , the social media site that had a white-hot initial public offering last week, chipmaker Freescale Semiconductor Holdings missed its $1 billion target.
* Google Inc introduced a mobile application that allows consumers to make a payment by waving their cellphones at a retailer's terminal rather than pulling out a credit card.
* Facebook is in talks with music services to make a tab to display a user's top songs and to give friends an easy way to hear them. (Compiled by Tenzin Pema; Bangalore Equities Newsdesk +91 80 4135 5800; within U.S. +1 646 223 8780)
