many of them will have been purchased, you can't control for that. Even if you could, lump sum is 806 million, and after taxes (fed, state) amount < 486 mil, so, even if you could buy them all, you still lose.
That scenario might be possible if it goes up again, but you'd need agents stationed at EVERY vendor with precise detailed instructions via their phone, and no mistakes. The profit might be 500 million, with $200 going to each of your agents and $125,000,000 to you. Assuming you had the $500 mil it took to set that all up. You could also just buy a hotel in Cuba.
