don't the mm companies make money if they have a large inventory that they bought up at a low price and the stock surges



MM's don't keep much, if any, inventory, due to Net Capital Requirements which are computed daily.

Go to the SEC or FINRA websites and learn the basics, and laws and regulations, about Market Makers.

You realize, don't you, that MMs have compliance departments and risk managers?

What you describe would be insanely risky. And that's one reason they don't do it.
