About Michael Burry
**Michael Burry / Scion Asset Management**
Michael Burry serves as the principal of Scion Asset Management, a California-based investment firm widely recognized for its concentrated, high-turnover approach to equity management. As of the Q3 2025 13F filing, Scion reported a total portfolio value of approximately $1.4 billion distributed across just 8 disclosed positions, reflecting a notably narrow breadth of holdings relative to similarly sized institutional managers.
The latest filing shows the portfolio anchored by Palantir Technologies (PLTR), which accounted for 66.0% of total reported value. Nvidia Corporation (NVDA) represented the second-largest position at 13.5%, followed by Pfizer Inc. (PFE) at 11.1%, Halliburton Co. (HAL) at 4.5%, and Molina Healthcare Inc. (MOH) at 1.7%. The top five holdings collectively represented 96.8% of the portfolio. Sector exposure is heavily concentrated in Information Technology, which accounted for 79.5% of disclosed assets, with the remainder distributed across Energy and Healthcare.
Quarter-over-quarter activity recorded in the Q3 2025 filing was substantial in scope. Scion disclosed 6 new positions and exited 9 positions during the period, while reducing 2 existing holdings and recording no outright increases to prior positions. The combination of significant exits alongside new initiations reflects a high portfolio turnover profile. The firm holds zero increased positions from the prior quarter, and the two reduced positions were NVDA and PFE, each trimmed from their prior reported levels.

Opening a new position can suggest the manager sees value or a thesis worth committing capital to. It does not necessarily mean they are bullish on the broader market — concentrated managers add positions infrequently while quants may rotate constantly.
