[Legolasix]

The hedge fund Scion Capital was established by Michael Burry (https://tradersunion.com/interesting-articles/richest-forex-traders-trading-secrets-life-stories/michael-burry-trading-strategy/), who ran it until 2008, when he made the decision to close it so that he could concentrate on his personal interests. His most famous accomplishment is that, between 2007 and 2010, he was one of the first investors to foresee and benefit from the subprime mortgage crisis.
