Tech Giants Are Entering the Payments Industry with NFC Chips

By Laura Perez | Apr 20, 2011

Phones are hardly phones anymore: they’re very small computers that happen to have a Skype-like method of communication. Smartphones are making forays into the world of payments, with merchants like Starbucks experimenting with mobile prepaid cards and scrappy startups like Silicon Valley’s BlingNation piloting smartphone-only registers.

Apple and Google are also now jumping on the mobile payment bandwagon, using near field communication (NFC) chips that would enable customers to pay simply by waving their phones over a register. Apple will probably have NFC chips ready by the iPhone 6, but Google is one step ahead: it already supports the technology in Android phones like the Nexus 5 and will begin testing mobile payment systems in New York and San Francisco.

But will it ever happen?

TechCrunch’s Erick Schonfeld wrote a piece recently arguing that NFC chips will never reach the critical mass needed to become actually useful. He ci

Ask the expert: How would a government shutdown affect savings accounts?

By Kenneth Moore | Apr 14, 2011

Q: How will it affect the economy if the Federal government shuts down because of the budget disagreement, and specifically, will this be good or bad for interest rates on savings accounts? They seem so low that nothing could hurt them, but I’m a big believer in Murphy’s Law.

A: If a government shutdown lasts more than a week or so, your belief in Murphy’s Law will be justified. A sustained government shutdown seems likely to have a negative economic effect, and one that would be especially bad for savings accounts, as well as other interest-bearing deposits such as CDs and money market accounts.

Even without a government shutdown, an emerging theme in the economy lately has been developments which threaten to slow economic growth while adding to inflation pressure. The unrest in the Middle East and the disasters in Japan fall into this category, and it is a worst-of-both-worlds scenario for CD, savings, and money market rates.
