America’s biggest investor, Michael Burry has voiced his sharp criticism of reports that Nvidia is preparing a a $250 billion backstop for OpenAI’s massive Ohio data-center project . According to a report by the Wall Street journal, the guarantees would help OpenAI lease a 10-gigawatt site being developed by SoftBank’s SB Energy, with total costs potentially exceeding $500 billion. Burry’s complaint echoes what analysts have long warned about in AI megadeals : circular funding arrangements that expose investors to enormous risk if sentiment shifts or growth slows. Nvidia, already valued at $5 trillion, has invested $30 billion in OpenAI and is now considering financing chip purchases worth another $350 billion. Critics say such structures could leave the industry vulnerable, especially since OpenAI remains unprofitable and lacks an investment-grade credit rating.
