Jeff Bezos Back As World’s Richest Man; Elon Musk Slips To Number 2

Elon Musk's stint as the world's richest person was reasonably short-lived as Amazon’s Jeff Bezos is now back to the top on the coveted Bloomberg Billionaires Index ranking. Reportedly, Tesla Inc. shares on February 16 plummeted by 2.4% thereby stripping $4.6 billion off of CEO Elon Musk. Consequently, Bezos retrieved his longstanding world number one position as his net worth clocked at $191.2 billion, a whopping $955 million more than the closest contender, Musk.
