This time, his bet against Nvidia and his criticism of AI companies have made him a hot topic on social media.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><strong>What Happened<\/strong>: Burry\u2019s recent actions may have played a role in last week\u2019s stock market dip. The investor, notorious for his ominous crash and recession predictions, recently made a comeback on social media after a two-year break, issuing several warnings about a potential bubble in AI stocks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">According to the Business Insider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/michael-burry-big-short-meme-social-media-nvidia-palantir-ai-2025-11\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:report;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">report<\/a>, Burry\u2019s hedge fund,\u00a0<strong>Scion Asset Management<\/strong>, revealed that\u00a0it held bearish options\u00a0on\u00a0<strong>Nvidia<\/strong>\u00a0<a class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/NVDA?nid=49022684&amp;utm_campaign=partner_feed&amp;utm_content=site&amp;utm_medium=partner_feed&amp;utm_source=yahooFinance\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:(NASDAQ:;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">(NASDAQ:<\/a><a class=\"link \" href=\"http:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/q?s=NVDA\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:NVDA;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" target=\"_blank\">NVDA<\/a>) and\u00a0<strong>Palantir<\/strong>\u00a0<a class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/PLTR?nid=49022684&amp;utm_campaign=partner_feed&amp;utm_content=site&amp;utm_medium=partner_feed&amp;utm_source=yahooFinance\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:(NYSE:;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">(NYSE:<\/a><a class=\"link \" href=\"http:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/q?s=PLTR\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:PLTR;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" target=\"_blank\">PLTR<\/a>),\u00a0with a combined notional value\u00a0of $1.1 billion\u00a0at the end of September. Some market observers scoffed at Burry\u2019s bets, particularly after Nvidia\u2019s shares surged over 5% following its third-quarter earnings beat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">However, Nvidia saw its shares dip 3% by the market\u2019s close on Thursday and drop another 1% on Friday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">This unexpected downturn pulled the entire stock market down, leading some to support Burry and his skeptical view of the AI boom.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/news\/politics\/25\/10\/48424091\/these-tech-ceos-campaign-to-stop-donald-trump-from-sending-troops-to-san-francisco?nid=49022684&amp;utm_campaign=partner_feed&amp;utm_content=site&amp;utm_medium=partner_feed&amp;utm_source=yahooFinance\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:These Tech CEOs Campaign to Stop Donald Trump From Sending Troops to San Francisco;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">These Tech CEOs Campaign to Stop Donald Trump From Sending Troops to San Francisco<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Despite the market\u2019s reaction, Burry has not verified\u00a0whether he holds Nvidia puts\u00a0or made a profit from Thursday\u2019s sell-off. His bet against Palantir, whose stock has plunged 25% since November 3, has also been lauded.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><strong>Why It Matters<\/strong>: Michael Burry\u2019s predictions have historically held weight in the financial world, given his accurate forecast of the 2008 financial crisis. His recent bet against Nvidia and critique of AI companies have not only stirred up social media but also potentially influenced the stock market.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">This highlights the significant influence that prominent investors can have on market trends and investor sentiment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">The market\u2019s reaction to Burry\u2019s moves underscores the ongoing debate about the sustainability and valuation of AI companies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Read Next<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/personal-finance\/financial-advisors\/25\/11\/48889460\/peter-lynch-on-ai-stocks-i-literally-couldnt-pronounce-nvidia-until-about-eight-months-ago?nid=49022684&amp;utm_campaign=partner_feed&amp;utm_content=site&amp;utm_medium=partner_feed&amp;utm_source=yahooFinance\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Peter Lynch on AI Stocks: \u2018I Literally Couldn\u2019t Pronounce Nvidia Until About Eight Months Ago\u2019;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Peter Lynch on AI Stocks: \u2018I Literally Couldn\u2019t Pronounce Nvidia Until About Eight Months Ago\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Up Next: Transform your trading with Benzinga Edge&#8217;s one-of-a-kind market trade ideas and tools. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/premium\/ideas\/benzinga-edge-checkout\/?t=be8be9spja3yaad1&amp;utm_source=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Click now to access unique insights;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><strong>Click now to access unique insights<\/strong><\/a> that can set you ahead in today&#8217;s competitive market.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">Get the latest stock analysis from Benzinga:<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">This article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/markets\/guidance\/25\/11\/49022684\/michael-burry-takes-on-nvidia-and-the-ai-boom-heres-why-people-are-loving-it\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Michael Burry Takes On Nvidia And The AI Boom, Here&#039;s Why People Are Loving It;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Michael Burry Takes On Nvidia And The AI Boom, Here&#8217;s Why People Are Loving It<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Benzinga.com;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Benzinga.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\">\u00a9 2025 Benzinga.com.
