Elon Musk got a record rich in a day for $ 25 billion
The fortune of the head of Tesla, Elon Musk, grew by a record $ 25 billion in a day. Thanks to this leap, he almost caught up with the richest man in the world, Jeff Bezos, follows from the data of the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
Bezos' capital is estimated at $ 180 billion, Musk – at $ 174 billion. Musk managed to get as close as possible to the leader of the rating due to the sharp rise in Tesla shares. The auto giant showed such figures amid reports of increased sales in China.
In January of this year, Elon Musk topped the list of the richest people. However, in February he lost ground and lost the leadership to Bezos. This happened due to the fall of bitcoin.
Despite Tesla's successes, Musk's other brainchild, SpaceX, is failing. Last week, another test of the Starship SN10 prototype ended in an explosion again.
