First domino to fall in the bubble pop. Same thing happened in crypto, same thing in 2008. It always starts in some hedge fund being liquidated.

I guess you can say his awareness of his risk situation was poor. There is no way you can sustainably run 300%+ leverage on stocks , unless you eventually cut back, which he had failed too until he was forced out . This is not like leverage on bonds . It was not a matter of if, but when.
