Don't be infatuated with my legend; it's better to let him live in legend.
Here are 12 terrible predictions made by big short Michael Burry since 2017. It's not surprising if you end up with massive losses or bankruptcy if you follow him a few times, but unfortunately, he is a big short and can still create paid communities, with unlimited funds.
January 2017: Predicted global collapse + World War III. Nothing happened.
September 2019: Said index funds = the next CDO. Thought too much.
December 2020: Shorted Tesla, calling it ridiculous. The stock soared, and he was shorting from the floor.
January 2021: Repeated the doomsday theory for Tesla. It more than doubled again.
January 2021: Said GME would not soar again. It surged, leaving you dizzy.
February 2021: Warned that the market was on a "knife's edge." It wasn't.
February 2021: Said inflation would kill Bitcoin. BTC hit an all-time high.
February 2021: Called Robinhood a casino. User/revenue exploded.
March 2021: Claimed Bitcoin was a bubble. It rebounded.
June 2021: Predicted the "mother of all crashes." Sold everything. The market went up.
September 2022: Predicted massive failures. The index closed higher.
August 2023: Bet $1.6 billion on a collapse; said "sell." Later: "I was wrong."
Now: A week after publicly shorting AI (NVIDIA, Palantir), Burry closed his fund.
