In his post, Burry underlined that the market had not seen a true, widespread “everyone give up and go home” panic since the 2008 financial crisis or the 2002 dot-com crash, even the 2020 COVID crash did not last long enough. Because the market has stayed highly priced for so long, anyone waiting for truly cheap, high-return stocks has looked foolish for a very long time, per Burry, but he stressed that the math behind his Fiserv, Inc. (NASDAQ:FISV) bet checked out. Burry explained that the job of a value investor was to wait until a stock hit those ultra-cheap prices so they could lock in huge 15% to 20% future returns. But the problem was that stocks only got that cheap when the world felt like it was ending.
