Michael Burry’s Final Warning – The $9.2M Bet That Could End Silicon Valley
The man who predicted the 2008 crash — when everyone on Wall Street laughed — has now stepped away from the market completely.
Michael Burry didn’t just short Palantir… he made one of the boldest trades in history: a $9.2 million bet that could return $240 million when the AI bubble bursts. That’s a 2,600% gain waiting for the pop.
The Numbers Speak For Themselves:
• Palantir: Trading at 449x earnings — price $184, while Burry’s strike is at $50.
• NVIDIA: Spending billions on chips that will be outdated in 3 years, but depreciating them over 10.
• AI Sector: Hiding over $176 billion in fake accounting through 2028.
This is Enron 2.0 — just with a silicon mask.
What People Don’t See:
Big Tech has already spent $200 billion building AI systems in 2025 alone. But revenue growth? Barely 20%. Energy costs are insane — enough to power small countries. And depreciation scams? Biggest in corporate history.
Burry saw it coming. He filed 50,000 put contracts, then quietly deregistered his entire fund on November 10th, just like he did in 2008 when the pressure broke him.
This Isn’t a Trade — It’s a Warning.
When Palantir’s CEO called him “crazy,” Burry didn’t reply. No interviews, no defense. Just one cryptic post: “November 25th — something unchained.”
He’s not trading anymore. He’s not managing money. He placed his bet, walked away from the table, and left a message for what comes next.
The same man who saw the housing crash while banks were partying is now warning about AI while tech stocks jump 173% this year.
Last time, it took 18 months for him to be right.
Last time, he made $100 million — and nearly lost his sanity.
This time, he’s not waiting to watch the world burn.
