A year ago, Michael Burry sold everything except Estee Lauder. He also bought puts on Nvidia.

Burry doubled his position in EL during Q1 2025, making it his only remaining long; the stock was down >50% in the prior year. A famous value investor doubling down on a beaten-down consumer staple signals a deep-value contrarian opportunity. Long EL as a high-conviction value play with a catalyst from Burry’s public endorsement. Continued revenue decline, luxury spending slowdown, or further negative earnings revisions. TICKER - NVDA - SHORT | confidence: 0.50 | sentiment: -0.70 Speaker: u/AccelerationFinish Thesis: Burry purchased put options on NVDA, indicating a bearish view on the stock. A well-known macro bear betting against a high-momentum tech leader suggests potential overvaluation or a pending correction. Short NVDA via puts or direct short, following Burry’s hedge. NVDA earnings beats, AI capex acceleration, or short squeeze. TICKER - FXI - SHORT | confidence: 0.50 | sentiment: -0.50 Speaker: u/AccelerationFinish Thesis: Burry sold his Chinese stock holdings (BABA, JD, PDD) and bought puts on those names, showing a bearish China view. A macro-focused investor exiting and shorting Chinese equities points to regulatory or economic headwinds. Short FXI (China large-cap ETF) as a proxy for Burry’s China bearishness. China stimulus, trade war de-escalation, or positive earnings from FXI constituents.
