Vingroup Chairman Pham Nhat Vuong has seen a significant surge in wealth, driven by a record high in Vingroup's stock (VIC). According to Forbes data from late August, Vuong's assets increased by approximately $2.3 billion in a single day on August 27, a 6.59% rise.
This increase placed Vuong 4th globally among billionaires with the largest single-day wealth gains, following Elon Musk, Larry Ellison, and Michael Dell. His total wealth is estimated at approximately $36.6 billion, positioning him around 60th on the Forbes world's richest list.
The wealth surge coincides with VIC stock hitting a new historical peak of 237,800 VND per share.
