Jeff Bezos is once again the richest man in the world

Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos reclaimed his title as the world’s richest person after he leapfrogged Tesla CEO Elon Musk, according to real-time data from Forbes.

Musk saw his net worth slide by $3.9 billion on Tuesday as Tesla shares closed at $796.22, down more than 2.4%. The 49-year-old entrepreneur surpassed Bezos in January to become the wealthiest person in the world, on the back of Tesla’s surging share price and his generous pay package.

Musk gave back the title of the world’s richest person to Bezos just as quickly as he rose in the rankings. Until last month, Bezos had been the richest man since 2017.

The Amazon founder’s wealth, mostly in Amazon stock, has skyrocketed in recent years and its share price. Bezos has continued to notch new wealth milestones. Last August, he became the first person to see their net worth surge above $200 billion, and in 2018, he became the world’s richest man in recent history when his wealth climbed above $150 billion.

Bezos once again became the world’s richest person as he prepares to leave his post later this year. This month, Bezos announced he would turn the helm over to Amazon’s top cloud boss Andy Jassy. Bezos is expected to still keep an eye on the company he founded. Yet, he will have more time to focus on other projects, including his Blue Origin rocket company and The Washington Post and philanthropic ventures, the Bezos Earth Fund and the Amazon Day 1 Fund.
