Mark Zuckerberg’s net worth has surged by $40.7 billion this year, bringing his total to $248 billion, as Meta’s stock continues its record-breaking winning streak. The company’s market value has reached $1.78 trillion, with shares rising over 17% due to investor excitement about Meta’s AI initiatives. This 12-session rally has added $235 billion to Meta’s valuation. Zuckerberg now ranks third on Bloomberg’s Billionaires Index, trailing only Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos. Musk’s net worth stands at $424 billion, while Bezos has added $21 billion to his fortune this year, bringing his total to $236 billion. Despite the volatility in technology stocks, Zuckerberg’s position on the rich list remains strong, though Meta’s stock is expected to open lower on Wednesday.
