About Michael Burry
Michael Burry built Scion Asset Management around deep, idiosyncratic value research — the same approach that led him to buy credit-default swaps on subprime mortgage securities in the mid-2000s, a trade reconstructed in Michael Lewis's The Big Short and confirmed in congressional testimony. His public equity book, as reported in 13F filings, is extreme by any measure: as of the latest quarter, four positions account for the entire disclosed long portfolio, with MOH, LULU, and SLM making up roughly 80% of that. What a 13F reader must internalize is that Burry's disclosed longs are almost certainly not the whole story — he has historically used put options, CDS, and other derivatives that either appear only as notional footnotes or don't appear at all, meaning the equity positions visible here may be hedges, pairs legs, or a small slice of a larger thesis. The clone-backtest excess return looks attractive, but replicating disclosed longs without visibility into the short or derivatives book means tracking a partial shadow, not the actual portfolio.
2025Q3 brief
Burry's Scion reported its 2025Q3 filing (note the quarter lag vs. peers) on a tiny $70M book now compressed to just four positions — about as concentrated as a registered fund can get. Three of the four are new: MOH (Molina Healthcare, 35.1%), a managed Medicaid insurer trading at distressed multiples amid policy uncertainty; SLM (Sallie Mae, 19.5%), a classic Burry contrarian consumer-credit pick in a rate-sensitive sector; and a corporate bond position in BRKR 6.375 09/01/28 (19.3%), an unusual fixed-income inclusion suggesting he's finding better risk/reward in credit than equity for part of the book. LULU was doubled (+100%, now 26.1%), doubling down on the beaten-down premium athleisure thesis. Mass exits — EL, BRKR equity, REGN, MELI, UNH — cleared the prior book entirely. The MOH/UNH swap is pointed: Burry dumped the large-cap managed care incumbent and bought a smaller, more policy-exposed Medicaid pure-play, a classic contrarian crowded-exit/ignored-entry trade. Watch whether the BRKR bond position matures or is liquidated early, and whether the healthcare concentration deepens in Q4 2025.
