Amid growing concerns over a potential bubble in technology valuations, investor Michael Burry has initiated short positions against Caterpillar Inc. and major tech firms including Nvidia and Applied Materials. According to reports, Burry believes the recent AI-fueled market rallies are unsustainable and maintains that stocks like Tesla remain significantly overvalued relative to their fundamental performance.
These bearish bets coincide with a period of high volatility for semiconductor peers; per market data, AMD closed at $580.91 and INTC at $139.63 on June 30, 2026. Analysts note that Burry’s positioning against Caterpillar, which closed at $1064.9 on June 30, suggests a broader skepticism regarding industrial growth durability alongside the cooling of the artificial intelligence hype cycle seen in previous months.
