How Tolkien decided the kikes are the good guys I don't know, it's not typical of him

How exactly were Dwarves the good guys as a whole? For the most part they are portrayed as greedy and shortsighted partly responsible for their own destruction. Sure we got good ones too but they are shown to be atypical of most other dwarves.

What does Smaug represent then?

The English are the greatest philosemites in Europe and have been since the reformation. This usually means they are the tools of the Jews.
This explains their fantastic economic success (the previously most successful country, Holland was also the home to an inordinate number of jews expelled from spain during the reconquista).

AFAIK Tolkien denied any intent for real-world allegorical meaning to the races of middle earth and their interactions.

Capitalism, the true evil. Jews aren't really about hoarding wealth the way capitalists are.

It's pretty easy to miss but orcs aren't good guys because they want nothing but war, and that's where their free will ends. Dwarves are naturally peaceful, even if they are often covetous and ethnocentric. They create great works in pieces of armor and weaponry and other metalwork and they trade fairly.

Allegory =/= inspiration
It's pretty fucking clear that Dwarves are based on Jews
