Michael Burry’s Short Positions
Michael Burry, renowned for predicting the 2008 housing crash, has disclosed short positions against Nvidia, Tesla, Micron Technology, Applied Materials, Caterpillar, and the iShares Semiconductor ETF in recent Substack posts. His latest short against Micron was reportedly entered near $1,052 per share, which he criticizes for trading further above its 200-day moving average than any time since 1984, including the dot-com peak.
Recent Performance Data
Micron Technology’s fiscal third-quarter revenue surged over 400%, reaching $41.5 billion, while Tesla delivered 480,126 vehicles in Q2, marking a 25% increase year-over-year. Despite this growth, Tesla’s stock trades at over 350 times earnings, raising questions about its valuation sustainability.
Market Implications
Burry’s short positions indicate concerns regarding overvaluations in the AI sector. He argues that while these companies are not failing, their stock prices have inflated to unsustainable levels, prompting investors to reconsider their positions in the face of potential market corrections.
