Such a decline in the state of 500 billionaires is the largest in history, Bloomberg pointed out.
The richest man on the planet has lost $ 1.4 trillion since the beginning of 2022. That data on Friday, July 1, was published by Bloomberg.
function news4470489() {
$.get(‘//’ + window.location.host + ‘/ajax/module.aspx?spm_id=444&id=4470489&lang=2&IsAjax=true’, function (data) { $(‘#nk4470489’).html(data); });
}

As indicated, such a decline in the status of the world’s 500 richest people is the largest in history. The reason, the article says, is that governments and central banks have stopped the support measures introduced to stimulate businesses during the coronavirus pandemic.
So, according to the publication, the fortune of Tesla and SpaceX owner Elon Musk was reduced by nearly $ 62 billion, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos lost $ 63 billion, and the net worth of Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg split in the first half of the year.
So, now only four inhabitants of the planet have a fortune of more than 100 billion dollars, while previously there were ten. We are talking about billionaires:
-
Elon Musk – $ 208.5 billion;
-
Jeff Bezos – $ 129.6 billion
-
Bernard Arnault, the richest man in France and president of the LVMH group – $ 128.7 billion;
-
Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft – $ 114.8 billion
As reported, the combined wealth of all the world’s dollar millionaires in 2021 increased by 7.8% and reached $ 86 trillion.
