Michael Hartnett, Bank of America’s Chief Global Equity Strategist, published a massive chart deck in a new report titled The Longest Pictures.

It includes tons of obscure historical financial market data.

One chart we found interesting was of British government bond yields going all the way back to 1730.

Check out the spike in rates right around the time of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776.

   the illuminati would never admit to being a part or even knowing anything about their society. they would never have a website or know anyone who would be dumb enough to start a trail linking anyone to anything. anyone who does is nothing more than a wannabe with money nowhere even close to those who actually run it all. making money for you and your friends isn’t as cracked up as running the world. they move mountains, they have technology beyond your mental capacity, and are thinking decades ahead. no one in the illuminati would embarrass themselves or their culture and those who do get punished. they are as mysterious as they are powerful and when they have their eye on you, you will almost certainly believe that your make believe god himself is playing with your life.
