'The Big Short' Bet Against Palantir & NVIDIA
Michael Burry's Scion Asset Management's latest 13F disclosure shows an extreme bearish concentration. The hedge fund has concentrated 80% of its $1.38B portfolio into put options on Palantir and Nvidia.
Portfolio Breakdown:
Total notional value: $1.38 billion (β139% from Q2's $578M)
$PLTR Puts:
β’ $912 million (66% of portfolio)
β’ 5 million put contracts
$NVDA Puts:
β’ $187 million (13.5% of portfolio)
β’ 1 million put contracts
Combined: $1.1B (~80%) betting both stocks fall.
Both companies are positioned to benefit from current administration priorities. Yet Burry's thesis appears to be: valuations are so extreme that even favorable policies can't justify current prices.
This is solid.. mentions Damus ban from China, zaps (although gives credit to taproot assets?), opensats, bitchat, white noise, technical details, etc.
