Hedge funds use leveraged money, when I looked into it, typical leverage available is 6-10X to new hedge funds, and more will be given to established customers.

If these hedge funds just bought 10yr with leverage, how come they didn't blow up during the runup of yields from 4% to 4.6% in 5 weeks during March/April?
