Learning From Michael Burry

Snip:
That was one of the first messages Michael Burry received when he started his value investing thread on Silicon Investor, back in 1996. Now however, Michael Burry is a pretty well-regarded investor, having made it big with inventing the credit default swap trade as a means of profiting from the financial crisis and being prominently featured in The Greatest Trade Ever by George Zuckerman and The Big Short by Michael Lewis. What I wanted to find out is how Michael Burry went from being a medical resident to being regarded as one of the greatest investors in recent history. Burry’s story is pretty inspirational to investment bloggers — he started out in relative obscurity, posting his ideas on message boards and eventually his own site, until he built a strong institutional following. Eventually, his amateur analyst work attracted the likes of Joel Greenblatt’s Gotham Capital and White Mountains Insurance Group (NYSE: WTM). With their money, he started Scion Capital and built a market beating track record. In recent years, Burry unwound his fund in favor of managing his own money.
