Few predicted the real-estate crash; many in the financial world helped blow up the bubble. But Michael Burry saw the danger and figured out a way to bet against it.

A central figure in Michael Lewis's best-selling book The Big Short, Michael Burry may be one of the smartest investors of our time.
