Michael Burry, the legendary investor who famously anticipated the 2008 housing market collapse, revealed several notable portfolio adjustments on Friday through a Substack update available to paying subscribers.
The investor disclosed new equity stakes in Chinese technology companies JD.com and Alibaba. Burry characterized JD as a “significant add,” allocating slightly over 6% of his portfolio to the position. Alibaba entered his holdings as a fresh investment at comparable weighting. According to Burry, the recent sell-off in these securities created “an attractive entry point” for accumulation.
Alibaba Group Holding Limited, BABA
American depositary receipts of JD.com jumped more than 2% on Friday after Burry’s disclosure became public. Alibaba shares traded slightly lower at $127.60 during afternoon market hours.
Burry also supplemented his existing GameStop stake, which he noted was “already a decent sized position.” Additionally, he purchased equity in financial technology firm Fiserv, citing his conviction in the company’s “new leadership.”
Nvidia Bearish Position Expands
Burry amplified his negative outlook on Nvidia through the acquisition of January 2027 Strike 115 put contracts purchased at $3.30. He noted that implied volatility remains elevated and acknowledged considering an outright short position but ultimately favored the capped risk profile that put options provide.
“I am short at about 3% of notional value,” Burry stated. He additionally verified that he maintains his previously established Nvidia January 2027 Strike 100 put positions.
Back in February, Burry publicly challenged whether major technology companies could maintain their aggressive data center capital expenditures without negatively impacting profitability.
Nvidia stock advanced approximately 2.5% on Friday, unaffected by Burry’s persistent bearish positioning.
Palantir Puts Retained as Burry Labels Shares “Wildly Overvalued”
Burry revealed he has maintained a bearish position against Palantir since autumn 2025, rolling the contracts multiple times. His current holdings include June 2027 Strike 50 puts alongside December 2026 Strike 100 puts.
“I am not selling these today,” he confirmed.
His remarks followed President Trump’s favorable mention of Palantir on Truth Social, where he lauded the company for its “great warfighting capabilities.” The presidential endorsement temporarily halted the stock’s intraday decline.
Palantir remained headed toward a roughly 13% weekly loss and has retreated approximately 28% year-to-date in 2026. The stock changed hands near $127 per share on Friday, significantly exceeding Burry’s fundamental valuation estimate of below $50.
Palantir CEO Alex Karp previously dismissed Burry’s bearish positions as “super weird” and “bats— crazy” following Scion Asset Management’s disclosure of negative bets against both Palantir and Nvidia last year.
Palantir has continued winning new government contracts and deepening its Pentagon relationships throughout Trump’s second presidential term.
