Selling a billion dollars of amazon via blocks etc with limited market impact? Probably doable if not super cheap.

3-400b? No way. There isn't capacity, you would cause a massive dip in prices. The timelines you would have to exit over would be very long, so disclosure also causes market reaction.

Loans work to an extent, but you get risk adjusted and eg 1bn of amazon stock is pretty low risk whilst 100bn is high risk. Concentration/size vs market cap and adv matter.

You can do it all, at a price, but it would be a lot lower than the current stock price for obvious reasons

Your claim seems to revolve around the idea that a fire-sale would crash the market, but no one is arguing for a fire-sale.

Again, structuring a sale over a long time span isn’t a big issue, since you can get cash now by selling the future revenue.

The real hard question would be to find $400bn worth of stuff to buy.

If Bezos declared he was selling all his amazon stock - the market would react badly. Both due to the scale of inventory and the implications of his alignment and investment.

Dimon sold some stock and it was front page news, and it wasn't that much.
