Michael Burry, often referred to as the "Wall Street in the United States," is a well-known figure in the financial world. With an estimated net worth of $250 million in 2024, Burry has amassed significant wealth throughout his career. He gained widespread recognition for successfully predicting and betting against the US housing market before the 2008 financial crisis, as depicted in the book and film "The Big Short." Recognized for his unique investment strategies and strong analytical skills, Burry continues to make a mark in the world of finance.
Burry graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles and the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. He became one of the first investors to recognize and invest in the subprime mortgage crisis, and has been described as a "risk avoider". He worked as a Stanford Hospital neurology resident but left to start his own hedge fund. He was very successful with his stock picks on the discussion site Silicon Investor. Burry argued that anyone who carefully studied the financial markets from 2003 to 2005 could have recognized the risk in the subprime markers in an April 2010 co-ed piece for The New York Times. He currently managers the asset management firm Scion Asset Management. Burry is prorated by Christian Bale in the 2015 film The Big Short.
