2008: Mortgage-backed Securities collapsed
2026: Compute-backed Securities?
Is Michael Burry about to short Jensen Huang's AI infrastructure bet?
The parallels are wild. MBS were bundled debt nobody understood until they imploded. Now we're tokenizing GPU compute, data centers, and AI training runs into financial products.
Same playbook:
• Overvaluation based on future promises
• Retail piling in without understanding risk
• Institutional leverage stacking up
If AI demand doesn't meet the hype, compute-backed assets could be the next subprime.
Burry made billions betting against consensus in 2008. If he's eyeing $NVDA and AI compute plays now, that's a signal worth watching.
