Original: With Burry as adviser, a new short-focused fund takes aim at private credit risks

Michael Burry, the investor known for betting against the US housing market before the 2008 crash, is advising a new short-focused fund that aims to profit from potential losses in private credit. The move highlights growing investor concern that the fast-growing private credit market may be carrying underpriced risks that could surface in a downturn.

Why now: Investors are increasingly worried that stretched valuations and opaque lending in the booming private credit sector could be the next source of market stress.
