Gabriel Plotkin, head of New York hedge fund Melvin Capital Management, has reportedly jumped on Nintendo's recent stock price woes by placing a huge short selling bet on the idea of it crashing even further. If a short seller believes that a company's stock price is overvalued, and will therefore fall in the future, they can make money through borrowing and selling stock at its current price before buying the stock back again after it has fallen in value.
In simpler terms, this basically means that Plotkin has placed a $400 million bet on Nintendo's stock price continuing to fall.

U.S. hedge fund manager Gabriel Plotkin believed that Nintendo's stock price would continue to fall after a recent trend of steady drops, deciding to use short-selling tactics to make a healthy profit should this be true. By borrowing and selling $400 million worth of shares, Plotkin would have been able to repurchase the stock at a lower value after a fall, essentially gaining a nice sum in the process.
Events didn't go to plan, however, as Nintendo reported earnings that beat early estimates, sending shares up by as much as 7% in Tokyo trading by the end of the day. According to Bloomberg, this suggests that Plotkin’s hedge fund, Melvin Capital Management, will have seen a very substantial loss of $27 million.
