The ten richest people in the world, after Trump’s victory, increased their wealth by a record 64 billion dollars in one day. Tesla CEO Elon Musk profited the most, whose wealth increased by $26.5 billion.
Musk, who declared himself a supporter of Trump, increased his assets, thanks to the jump in shares of Tesla, thereby further strengthening the position of the richest man in the world.
The fortune of the founder of Amazon Jeff Bezos, ranked second on the “Bloomberg” list of billionaires, increased by seven billion dollars, and the president of the Oracle company Larry Ellison, a sympathizer of the Republicans, became richer by almost ten billion dollars overnight and is now “worth” 193 billion dollars.
Among the winners are former Microsoft CEOs Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer, former Google CEOs Larry Page and Sergey Brin, as well as famous investor Warren Buffett.
The wealth of Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg stagnated, while the only daily loss was recorded by the owner of the luxury corporation LVMH, Bernard Arnault.
Shares of American companies rose significantly after the re-election of Trump, as investors expect lower taxes and less regulation for business.
