Zuckerberg joins Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Bernard Arnault in the exclusive $200 billion club.
Mark Zuckerberg, Meta’s CEO, has achieved a remarkable milestone, becoming one of the few individuals with a net worth exceeding $200 billion. According to Bloomberg’s Billionaire Index, Zuckerberg’s fortune now stands at $201 billion.
Zuckerberg’s wealth stems from his 13% stake in Meta, comprising approximately 345.5 million shares. Strong investor confidence has fueled Meta’s stock value, driven by ambitious plans for artificial intelligence. Meta AI is projected to reach 500 million monthly active users, despite not yet launching in major markets like the European Union.
Zuckerberg’s financial resurgence is impressive, considering the setbacks he faced in 2022. Meta’s strategic pivot, driven by innovations like Orion augmented reality glasses, has transformed the company into a serious contender in the metaverse and AI space. Other tech leaders, such as Nvidia’s Jensen Huang and Oracle’s Larry Ellison, have also seen significant wealth growth in 2024.
Zuckerberg now ranks behind Elon Musk ($272 billion), Jeff Bezos ($211 billion), and Bernard Arnault ($207 billion). His achievement solidifies Meta’s position as a leader in the tech industry.
