Michael Burry’s biggest bet just paid off.
Michael Burry has just revealed his latest trades through Scion Asset Management’s 13F filing, and his biggest bet is already paying off. In this video, we break down Burry’s multi-million dollar position in UnitedHealth, where he combined direct stock purchases with over $100 million in call options. We show how this trade made him as much as $42 million in profit, and why Burry (and possibly Warren Buffett) believe the stock could keep rising. We analyze the broader context behind the UnitedHealth trade, including market volatility, recent leadership changes, and the company’s undervaluation relative to its peers. We then look at Burry’s other short-term options trades, including Meta, ASML, Alibaba, JD.com, VF Corp, and what they reveal about his contrarian stance on AI stocks and US-China tariff fears.
Then we move into Burry’s long-term portfolio, showing the six stocks he’s actively buying shares in. These include Regeneron, Bruker Corp, MercadoLibre, Lululemon, Estee Lauder, and UnitedHealth. We identify three patterns in these picks—buying beaten-down stocks, finding hidden value through emotional selling, and targeting high cash-flow companies. This playbook explains how Burry is managing risk and opportunity in today’s uncertain market. We also explain how investors can apply lessons from Burry’s strategy, including the use of a barbell approach that mixes high-risk, high-reward trades with long-term defensive positions. Finally, we explore how Burry’s focus on cash flow and discounted valuations offers a roadmap for investing in undervalued areas of the market while avoiding overpriced momentum stocks.
