> TCI, who do not actually run the business, are threatening the CEO (addressed to Sundar) that they will move their money if Google doesn't do what they say - namely cut costs etc...
What does "move their money" technically mean in this situation? Google is not a bank, they don't keep TCI's money. Is this a threat of tanking the stock price by selling all $6B at once? TCI would hurt themselves too if they do that.

Sell GOOG and buy META (or whatever)

The act of liquidating their position is what reduces the price. So they drop their ask to the lowest bid price that liquidates their position net positive and in theory that action would cause a price cascade. It's a threat, not a guarantee.
