I'm not an expert here but I heard it was unusual for a Hedge Fund to take on this much risk and to do it in such a public manner. The 130% shares shorted was a giant red flag and they shorted the stock in a way that made their activity a public disclosure under SEC guidelines (typically they can hind this through normal over the counter trading). Bottom line: they got greedy and an internet brigade went viral.
