Basically
This video makes it sound like Japan is trying to cripple the US, but they are just trying to stablize their own economy.

I think there is an element of geopolitics, as well as domestic monetary policy. Nothing happens in a vacuum.

Right, but Japan is tied to the US.
There isnt a point in trying to cripple the US.
reply
I doubt they wanted to cripple the US and I don't think they did. I think they wanted to change the power balance between themselves and the Fed, though, which consequently led to a market correction.

All of this is happening because the US printed so many dollars.

Pretty much
Sounds like everything went peachy!
