The billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk has now leapfrogged Bill Gates to grab the world’s second-richest ranking.
Musk’s net worth swelled by more than $7.2 billion on November 23, driven by another surge in the Tesla share price.
In January 2020, he ranked 35th, but the tremendous rise in Tesla’s share price has helped him gain ground and surpass other billionaires in the world.
Since the beginning of this year, the members of the Bloomberg Index have collectively gained 23% — or $1.3 trillion.
