This is coming after a massive stock slump made the world’s 500 richest people, including Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, lose $134billion overall.
According to Bloomberg, shares of Amazon.com Inc. went down by 8.8 percent as part of a wider sell-off in the market, and this dropped Bezos’ net worth to $191.5billion, since his wealth is being wrapped up in his company.
Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta Platforms Inc shares also fell by 1.9 per cent, causing him to lose more than $3billion in value, while Musk’s net worth dropped by $6.6billion, leading his Tesla shares to plunge by 4.2 per cent.
