J.P. Morgan was the power behind the White Star Line.

At the time, he was consolidating control over the U.S. financial system through the creation of the Federal Reserve.

Three of the biggest opponents to the Federal Reserve were aboard the Titanic:

1. Benjamin Guggenheim (mining magnate)
2. Isidor Straus (co-owner of Macy’s)
3. John Jacob Astor IV (one of the richest men in the world)

All three opposed Morgan’s plans for the Federal Reserve.

None of them survived.

Meanwhile, J.P. Morgan had a first-class ticket on the Titanic—but canceled his trip at the last minute.

In 1985, researchers discovered the Titanic wreck.

But when they examined the hull, they found something shocking:

The metal plating was bent outward. //

3. Three of his biggest rivals died aboard

4. There are serious discrepancies in the Titanic’s construction, sinking, and insurance.

Coincidence? Maybe.

Or maybe one of the greatest financial schemes in history.

No one can prove the Titanic was deliberately sunk.

But here’s what we do know:

1. J.P. Morgan controlled White Star Line

2. He canceled his trip at the last minute

3. Three of his biggest rivals died aboard

4. There are serious discrepancies in the Titanic’s construction, sinking, and insurance.

Coincidence? Maybe.

Or maybe one of the greatest financial schemes in history.
