‘Big Short’ investor Michael Burry bet half of his portfolio on Chinese stocks. It’s finally starting to pay off

• Famed “Big Short” investor Michael Burry is benefiting from the recent surge in Chinese stocks.
• Burry’s Scion Asset Management has nearly half of its portfolio invested in Chinese tech giants like Alibaba.
• China’s recent stimulus measures, including interest-rate cuts, have sparked a surge in stock gains.

The surge in Chinese stocks this week should be music to the ears of hedge fund manager Michael Burry of “The Big Short” fame.
