Let me rephrase: Buying a huge volume of shares equivalent to SoftBanks option delta exposure would raise the share price of whatever underlying the options were for.

What he's saying is that there is only so much liquidity at a given price point.
Given low enough liquidity even tiny volume purchases relative to the liquidity can increase the price of a share.
No it doesn't.
Shares prices are falling today. People are selling. That means people are also buying. Every transaction has a buyer and a seller. Yet prices still fall.
