Put options on Nvidia and Palantir that expire in December 2026 were dumped on September 10, 2026, prompting a fresh risk warning from the investor. The action was reported across multiple finance outlets and signaled a shift in exposure to AI‑related equities.
Yahoo Finance and finance.yahoo.com reported the disposal, while Seeking Alpha detailed the pullback on risk and the simultaneous portfolio‑wide cuts. The Motley Fool highlighted a warning of a possible “1987‑type fall” for AI‑related stocks. 24/7 Wall St. framed the action as a reduction in bearish bets on Nvidia and CRWV, and Finbold noted the shift toward long positions in LULU under $100.
Despite the high‑profile sell‑off, the investor also increased exposure to other equities, such as FLUT and LULU, suggesting the move reflects broader portfolio rebalancing rather than a singular bet against AI firms. No immediate price reaction was documented, and analysts note that the longer‑term impact remains uncertain.
