That's the theory, but I feel like enough people have heard of him by now to be aware of the numbers game being played.
- tccole 2mo agoI don’t agree with your conclusion. It’s like Michael Burry, he’s gotten 10 of the last 2 economic crashes right.
- zahlman 2mo agoHow many people in the financial space recognized Burry's name before 2008?
- tccole 2mo agoPretty much none, but he’s been saying the sky is falling for the last decade.
- zahlman 2mo agoWell yes, that's the point. Burry had his success early and was not notable before that. Zitron has been outputting a continuous stream of bearish sentiment that hasn't come to fruition, from the moment anyone recognized the name. And even then, people are starting to notice that Burry's gone a while without a noticeable success.
