The most profitable billionaire in 2023.. added $50 billion to his wealth
The difference in wealth between Tesla co-founder Elon Musk and French billionaire LVMH chairman Bernard Arnault narrowed to just $8 billion after a good week for technology companies driven by artificial intelligence and convergence to find a solution to the US debt ceiling crisis.
On the other hand, luxury goods companies came under a lot of pressure, after shares of “LVMH” fell by more than 7% until Thursday during the past week, before rising again on Friday with the general recovery in the stock markets.
The wealth of “Bernard Arnault”, the owner of the company that owns more than 15 luxury goods brands, including “Louis Vuitton”, “Christian Dior”, “Tiffany” and others, amounted to about $ 193 billion.
While Elon Musk added about $9 billion to his wealth during the past week alone, to reach $185 billion.
Despite Musk’s large gains since the beginning of the year, which amounted to $ 48.4 billion to his fortune, he is still the second most profitable billionaire in 2023, especially after the co-founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, bid farewell to the great series of collapses that led him to a low ranking. In the forties, he was included in the “Bloomberg Billionaires” list at the beginning of the year, to be in the tenth place with a net worth of $ 95.5 billion until last Friday, adding about $ 50 billion to his wealth.
The highest ranking that Zuckerberg had previously obtained when he came third on the list of billionaires.
The 3 richest people in the world have added more than $116 billion to their wealth since the beginning of the year, while the 10 most profitable billionaires in 2023 have accumulated more than $316 billion to their wealth.
