    Yeah it’s one of the classics. In reality, the rich liquidate stocks all the time, particularly large amounts might not always be able to be dumped on the market immediately in one go but well, then it’s simply done over a certain timespan, but generally speaking it takes quite a lot before the market “cares”.
