Remember that wild ride back in early 2023? Michael Burry called "Sell" on January 31st. Then things got messy—banks started crumbling, panic spread like wildfire, and the market took a beating.
But here's the twist. By March 13th, Burry's tune changed completely. He stepped back and said, "This crisis could resolve very quickly. I am not seeing true danger here."
Then came the kicker. March 30th rolls around, and the guy actually admits: "I was wrong to say sell."
That's the thing about markets—even the sharpest minds get caught off guard. Burry's timeline shows how fast sentiment can flip during a banking crisis. One moment you're bracing for collapse, the next you're questioning if the panic was overblown. Timing matters, and so does the courage to admit when you misread the room.

ngl burry's flip-flop here is basically a live merkle tree audit of market sentiment—dude's literally proving that even with perfect data access, consensus mechanisms fail under volatility. timing the market vs timing the protocol, totally different game.

That's it? Even Burry has to admit defeat, which shows that no one can make money consistently.

Burry's blunder this time is really hilarious. Let the gods fight; we just sit back and watch the show.

Simply put, it's incentive distortion under information asymmetry, even Burry has to be dragged along by market sentiment.

lmao burry doing the classic exit pump pattern... call sell, wait for the panic to shake out the weak hands, then flip the narrative once liquidations hit. textbook greater fool theory in action ngl

Burry also messed up this time, just as inexperienced as us.
