Michael Burry discloses major portfolio changes across Microsoft, Oracle, Palantir and Nvidia

The update says he exited Microsoft longs, closed Oracle shorts and January 2026 Palantir shorts, rolled Nvidia shorts to June 2027, and extended a bearish QQQ position to February 2027.

Fact Check
The specific portfolio changes in the claim are corroborated by multiple independent X trackers posted within the same hour on 2026-08-04 (unusual_whales, burrytracker, allday_stocks, plus others), all agreeing that Burry exited Microsoft longs/calls, closed Oracle shorts/puts, closed January 2026 Palantir puts while remaining short, and rolled Nvidia puts to June 2027. Context from Stocktwits confirms Burry disseminates such disclosures via his Substack and had consistent prior positions. The originating Substack post itself was not directly fetched, so confidence is medium rather than high, but the convergence of specific, matching details from many independent secondary sources strongly supports the claim.
Summary

Michael Burry disclosed a fresh set of portfolio changes across major technology and market-linked positions. He sold his Microsoft long position, closed short positions in Oracle and in January 2026-dated Palantir exposure, rolled his Nvidia short position forward to June 2027, and extended a short position in the Nasdaq 100 ETF QQQ to February 2027. He still holds short positions tied to the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index ETF, Micron, Nvidia, Caterpillar, Palantir, Tesla and Applied Materials, signaling that his bearish exposure remains concentrated in semiconductors, technology and cyclical names.
