Interesting, but:

<<What actually drove the wartime inflation into hyperinflation, said Schacht, was speculation by foreign investors, who would bet on the mark's decreasing value by selling it short. >>

Yawn.... in the more modern case (the US) speculators to short sell arent needed, since "investors" already own the $US. In fact one could argue that there is not other outcome at this point.
