Jeff Bezos reclaims title of world’s richest person

Elon Musk’s reign as the the world’s richest person was brief.

Tesla Inc. shares slid 2.4 per cent on Tuesday, erasing $4.6 billion from its chief executive officer’s fortune and knocking him from the top spot on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index ranking.

Jeff Bezos, who’d held the title for more than three years until last month, reclaimed his No. 1 position with a net worth of $191.2 billion, or $955 million more than Musk.
