Are you confusing 1923 Germany with 1929 US?

no....6 years later hyper-inflation again returned to Germany.
the 1929 depression was world wide...
The US had been propping up the German economy via huge loans in 1924, loans to rebuild their economy.
The loans stopped...and the US started demanding repayment. and Germany was once again toast.

I was actually trying to compare 1929 Germany to 2008 U.S.,
assuming the dollar keeps tanking and all the foreigners start dropping their dollars & US holdings.
