VC10X Micro - The Big Short 2.0

Michael Burry—the legendary investor who predicted the 2008 housing crash—has just placed a massive bet against the AI boom. His latest 13F filing reveals he's shorting Nvidia and Palantir, the two darlings of the AI revolution. Is this the beginning of the AI bubble bursting, or is Burry making the biggest mistake of his career?

In this deep dive, we break down Burry's exact positions, the warning signs he's seeing that others are ignoring, and what this means for the future of AI investing. We also examine the counter-argument: why betting against this market could be incredibly dangerous.
