You are inferring too much from that comment. I think those people just had large stock holdings in general and were he market went up a lot that day.

The market briefly went up 7% that day.

To make 2.5 billion just from holdings they must have had stock holdings of 35 billion. Then the next day they lost a lot more than that. I doubt it very, very much.
