Michael Burry said that while his hedge fund firm Scion Asset Management may be deregistered, he’s still active in markets.

“This last go-around was always essentially a friends and family fund,” he wrote in an email to Bloomberg News on Tuesday. “I didn’t market it or treat it like most do, and I wasn’t trying to grow assets by acquiring investors I didn’t already know. I didn’t want the problems I had the first go around with Scion Capital.”
