Elon Musk has reclaimed the number-one spot as the richest
man on the planet after toppling luxury brand multi-billionaire owner, Bernard
Arnault, from the top spot.
The Tesla and Twitter head surpassed the French luxury brand
billionaire after the shares of LVMH owned by Mr Arnault dropped by 2.6% in
Paris trading.
Bloomberg Billionaire Index places Elon Musk’s net worth at
$192 billion, making him the first on the list and the world’s richest man at
the moment.
The index places LVMH Bernard Arnault’s net worth at $187
billion making him the second on the list
The third position goes to Jeff Bezos of Amazon with a net
worth of $144 billion.
Elon Musk runs Tesla, America’s foremost electric car
company. He also owns Twitter, the popular micro-blogging platform, and Space
X, his space programme initiative.
Mr. Arnault owns LVMH, a French multinational holding, and
conglomerate specialising in luxury goods. LVMH is the world’s leading dealer
in luxury brands. It owns popular luxury brands like Louis Vuitton, Givenchy,
Christine Dior, Fendi, Sephora, etc.
Messrs Musk and Arnault have been locked in a race for the
number-one spot for several months.
The Bloomberg Billionaires Index is a credible daily ranking of the world’s 500 richest people based on their net worth.
In December 2022, Bernard Arnault reportedly overtook the Tesla head when he was in the second spot for more than two months. Musk reclaimed again in late February.
