THE APEX TIMES
The hedge-fund manager says Nvidia’s setup remains compelling and identifies MercadoLibre and Temple & Webster as his two largest positions, each representing more than 10% of his portfolio, according to a recent interview posted by Yahoo Finance.
Hedge-fund manager Michael Burry is projecting continued strength for Nvidia, describing the semiconductor company as shaping up to be “a heck of a trade,” in comments carried by Yahoo Finance and reposted through Stocktwits.
In the same discussion, Burry said his two biggest positions are MercadoLibre and Temple & Webster, with each position accounting for more than 10% of his portfolio. The remarks, as published, do not provide additional details such as the timing of those entries, the size of each position in dollars, or whether the weights have changed recently.
Burry’s view matters to markets not because it is a formal endorsement of a specific trade, but because his public comments can influence attention around the stocks he highlights. Nvidia, MercadoLibre, and Temple & Webster all draw investor attention for different reasons: Nvidia for its role in powering artificial intelligence and data-center compute, and the two large “platform” and “retail/property” style exposures for how they reflect demand and growth expectations in their respective markets.
Nvidia operates in multiple end markets, with its most widely watched exposure tied to data-center infrastructure. In plain terms, demand for faster chips, high-bandwidth networking, and larger training and inference systems has been a key driver for its results and the market’s expectations about the AI buildout. The comments cited in the article fit that broader narrative by indicating Burry sees Nvidia’s opportunity as durable rather than episodic.
Still, the post does not spell out what specific fundamentals or valuation points underpin Burry’s confidence. It does not break down catalysts, discuss near-term product milestones, or address potential risks such as competition, export restrictions, or customer spending cycles.
Beyond the headline view on Nvidia, Burry’s stated portfolio concentration suggests he is willing to take relatively large exposures to fewer names. When a manager publicly discloses that multiple positions each make up more than 10% of a portfolio, it is often read as a announcement that conviction is high. However, the figures alone do not reveal whether those holdings are being accumulated gradually or trimmed over time.
The most important limitation is that the remarks described in the Yahoo Finance-linked post provide limited, non-filing-level transparency. Without access to contemporaneous filings, purchase dates, or the full list of holdings, it is not possible to confirm the exact size, cost basis, or holding period of Nvidia, MercadoLibre, or Temple & Webster.
Investors and traders are likely to watch for any follow-on disclosure that adds specificity, such as updated position counts or additional explanations of what would change the thesis. For Nvidia in particular, attention will likely remain on data-center demand indicates and any indications about how quickly customers are expanding AI infrastructure, because those datapoints often determine whether a “heck of a trade” view becomes a sustained narrative or fades.
