Reuters has not verified these stories and does not vouch for their accuracy. * With the cost of some lifesaving cancer drugs exceeding $100,000 a year, more than 100 influential cancer specialists from around the world have taken the unusual step of banding together in hopes of persuading some leading pharmaceutical companies to bring prices down. () * Samsung Electronics Co said its first-quarter net income jumped 42 percent from a year earlier to a record high thanks to robust smartphone sales even during a typically slow season for the electronics market. () * Federal regulators on Thursday admonished some of the nation's largest banks for offering payday-style loans, short-term costly credit tied to customers' checking accounts. () * George Soros, the hedge fund billionaire, on Thursday disclosed a 7.9 percent stake in J C Penney, with 17.4 million shares, according to a securities filing.
