'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.
đĄ Portfolio Breakdown:
Total notional value: $1.38 billion (â139% from Q2's $578M)
đĄ $PLTR Puts:
âą $912 million (66% of portfolio)
âą 5 million put contracts
đĄ $NVDA Puts:
âą $187 million (13.5% of portfolio)
âą 1 million put contracts
đĄ 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.
