Jeff Bezos climbs to second on Forbes billionaires list

The latest Forbes billionaires list shows significant shifts among the world's wealthiest individuals, with seven of the top ten changing positions over the past month. Elon Musk remains at the top of the rankings.

Jeff Bezos has reclaimed the second position for the first time since May 2025. His wealth increased by approximately $102 billion to reach an estimated $370 billion, driven by new valuations of his space company, Blue Origin, and the industrial AI startup Prometheus.

Larry Page, co-founder of Google, fell to third place with a wealth of $286 billion. Michael Dell moved up to fourth place, reaching $268 billion following an 18% surge in Dell Technologies shares fueled by demand for AI servers. Sergey Brin dropped to fifth place with $263 billion. Mark Zuckerberg remains in the top ten, seeing his wealth grow by $55 billion to $251 billion due to rising Meta stock prices.
