A portfolio that exceeds 100 billion

Thanks to a 6% rise in Facebook’s stock price on the New York Stock Exchange, Mark Zuckerberg saw his fortune exceed $ 100 billion. The CEO of the Californian firm, who owns 13% of the latter’s shares, thus reaches one of the greatest fortunes on the planet.

According to the US news agency Bloomberg, Mark still remains far behind Jeff Bezos, the CEO of Amazon, whose fortune exceeds 190 billion dollars.

Despite a significant decline in the US economy during this time of crisis, the digital titans continue to record huge numbers, as lockdowns in many countries have resulted in many people around the world turning their backs on to the services provided on the Internet.

For US Democratic Senator Bernie Sanders, this wealth should benefit all Americans. Bernie Sanders is counting on his Make Billionaires Pay Act project to impose a 60% tax on the increase in net worth of US billionaires from March 18 until the end of the year. This would, in its sense, cover the health expenses of all Americans in this time of crisis.
