Michael Burry of 'The Big Short' Fame Bets Against the Market With 1.6Billion in S&P & Nasdaq Puts

14 August 2023

Michael Burry, known for anticipating the 2008 crisis, has been rapidly adjusting his portfolio. Three months ago, he offloaded several 2022 holdings and invested in Chinese stocks, energy firms, and distressed banks. However, recent filings reveal he’s sold many of these assets, including stakes in JD.com and Alibaba. He’s now invested in companies like Expedia and Charter Communications. Significantly, Burry has acquired puts on both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100, suggesting he’s hedging against a market downturn.
