Doesn't have to be negative tongue weight. If you're not in the recommended proportion of tongue weight to trailer weight, this can happen. I witnessed this first hand on a landscaping trailer hauling a mini excavator. The unit was parked only slightly forward of center axle and still it almost upset the rig at 25 mph! The perfect storm can crop up no matter what your set up is. Best to optimize it and use a good hitch. Can't cheat physics.
