Modernisation bill would require GPs and hospitals in England to share data, reducing errors and duplication Sharing access to patients’ health data across NHS providers in England could result in 20,000 fewer A&E visits a year and save £20m annually, the government has claimed, before the second reading of the NHS modernisation bill on Monday. The bill, which would also abolish NHS England , sets out measures including single patient records (SPR) for every person receiving health and social care in England, requiring GPs and hospitals to securely share data as part of the government’s 10-year health plan.

The focus of competition for Chinese electric vehicles (EVs) is shifting from prices to artificial intelligence capability, as carmakers try to manage weakening demand amid tightened regulations, according to Morgan Stanley.

Dell Technologies Inc. introduced a redesigned XPS 13 laptop, positioning the device as a direct answer to Apple Inc.’s popular MacBook Neo , which stunned the budget PC market upon its debut in March with its features and price. The new Dell machine, hitting the market in time for back-to-school shopping, offers a premium design that includes a high-resolution touch display and a backlit keyboard. Those advantages mean Dell hasn’t been able to fully match Apple when it comes to price: The XPS 13 begins at $699 — students can purchase it for $599 — while the MacBook Neo costs $599 and drops to $499 for education buyers. Still, Dell’s laptop includes 512 gigabytes of storage in the base model, which matches the stepped-up $699 MacBook Neo with Touch ID. It measures 12.7 millimeters thick and weighs 2.2 pounds, lighter than the 2.7-pound Neo. Like Apple’s device, the XPS 13 has an aluminum outer shell that looks and feels sleeker than many other laptops in its segment. “I’ll give them credit. It’s a good product, and it validates the market we’ve been talking about,” Jeff Clarke, Dell’s chief operating officer, said of the Neo in a media webcast announcing his company’s latest hardware. “The difference is we’ve built something better.” Dell’s product allows for more configuration, with up to 32GB of memory compared with the Neo’s nonupgradeable 8GB of unified memory. Its display can also produce a wider spectrum of colors and supports refresh rates up to 120 hertz, while Apple reserves its best screens for the pricier MacBook Pro line. The inclusion of a backlit keyboard should allow for easier typing in dark conditions. Dell has also tossed in other nice-to-have upgrades over the Neo like more robust Wi-Fi 7 wireless networking. As for battery life, Dell is touting “up to 17 hours of streaming” versus a comparable 16 hours on the Neo. Still, the XPS comes with compromises of its own: Unlike the Neo, there’s no built-in headphone jack, which means owners will need to ...

The XPS 13 returns as a budget-friendly option, launching in July at a promotional student price of $599 - though that introductory deal only runs until September for back-to-school shopping; it'll start at $699 for everyone else. The $599 promo exactly matches up with the MacBook Neo's starting price, but students can actually get Apple's budget laptop for $100 less. That means Dell has its work cut out proving that the XPS 13 is worth the extra money. This will be Dell's thinnest and lightest XPS to date, measuring 0.5 inches / 12.7mm thick and weighing just 2. … Read the full story at The Verge.

Chinese consumers are showing signs of a renewed appetite for high-end beauty and fashion products, a rare bright spot for global luxury brands after years of weak demand and margin-eroding discounts in their most important growth market. Results from companies including L’Oréal SA , LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE and Ralph Lauren Corp. , along with industry data compiled by Bloomberg News, suggest affluent consumers are starting to spend more again, helped in part by a Chinese equities rally that’s boosting wealth and sentiment. It’s also adding to signs that the cycles of discounting that underpinned the sector in recent years are slowing, as shoppers increasingly splash their cash. LVMH-owned Louis Vuitton and Burberry Group Plc saw sales at their Chinese brick-and-mortar stores return to growth during the first quarter, while Kering SA -owned Gucci’s shops narrowed declines and Tapestry Inc. ’s Coach accelerated gains, according to Chinese data and research firm BigOne Lab. The beauty sector is also showing early signs of a high-end revival. On Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. ’s e-commerce platforms Tmall and Taobao, combined sales of the top 10 labels that retail for more than 200 yuan ($29) rose 39% in the first four months of the year, according to Hangzhou Zhiyi Tech data. In contrast, lower-priced brands posted slight declines. “Encouraging signals are showing in China’s consumption for the first time in several years,” said Daniel Zipser , a senior partner at consultancy McKinsey & Co. in Shenzhen. “It’s pointing in the right direction.” Burberry declined to comment on the BigOne data, while LVMH referred to earlier comments on its improving China performance. Gucci and Coach didn’t respond to requests for comment. ‘Wealth Effect’ China’s consumer confidence has been closely tied to the the property market, which has long accounted for the bulk of household wealth. But a persistent real estate downturn has seen the share of Chinese household savings alloca...

Shares of Dell Technologies (NYSE: DELL) soared about 33% on Friday, marking the stock's best day ever after the computer and server maker reported its fiscal first quarter of 2027 (the period ended May 1, 2026). The move did more than reward Dell's shareholders. It lit up a swath of stocks tied to artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure, from server makers to enterprise software. For more than a year, the best way to bet on the AI build-out was to own the chipmakers. Friday was a reminder that the money flowing to those chips has to land somewhere: in the servers that house them and the software that puts all that compute to work. Here's a look at three companies riding that broadening. Continue reading
