If the hedge fund was long 30 year treasuries and short 2 or 5 year treasuries, then they would be making a ton of money from the recent inversion of short over long rates. More likely any hedge fund losing money made a bet on a steepening yield curve, i.e. they were SHORT the 30 year and LONG the 2 or 5 year.
