Conspiracy, maybe. Theory, no. The panic of 1907 eventually lead to the formation of the National Monetary Commission which was then the commission in 1913 that recommended the formation of the Federal Reserve Bank through the Federal Reserve Act. The same thing is happening today to bring in a new financial order. the big fish eat up the small fish and become more powerful. JP Morgan also engineered the Bear Stearns collapse.

It's a Conspiracy Theory.
It was clearly caused by the run on banks durig a period of recession. If JP Morgan engineered run on bank then he was god.
JP Morgan stepped in to bail-out the financial system which was in the eve of systemic meltdown. Of course he profited from this. However 1907 panic was another run on bank before WWI. The panic of 1893 ended in 5 year depression.
Overextension of the financial system of unregulated banking system leads to this point. Every time.

No, the panic of 1907 was caused by JP Morgan because it lead to important reforms such as the formation of the Federal Reserve system. That is why it was caused.

Instead of reading Mises read Roubini.
So the "tulip bubble" in 17th century was also created by the government? Who caused this mess?
Panic of 1907 was also caused by non-existant Federal Reserve.
Give me break.

It was not the lack of regulation that caused this crisis - it was easy money and low interest rates combined with foolish lending practices. The Democrates wanted subprime lending to expanded and the Republican's used the expansion to tout growth in the economy. And investment bankers driven by money and political support to make foolish loans invented foolish investment practices to match foolish loans.
