cool, so using $2B i buy TSLA and using another $2B i buy a planet scale truckload of TSLA $10K calls, and the MMs would buy at least some shares to hedge it - and even some small percentage of that planet scale truckload number is really a large number of shares thus moving the stock high, which in turn increases the MMs' risks associated with the calls, and forces the MMs to buy even more shares to cover that increased risk which naturally drives the price even higher - positive feedback loop! - and now i dump the TSLA i have. Even without the herd of retail and passives amplifying the effect, it is already a wonderful play... Yep, it is great to be a big guy, ie. to have those $Bs to play at that scale. Though i wonder whether it falls under market manipulation and thus prohibited.
