On January 9, Bloomberg News reported that Jeff Bezos, the founder and CEO of Amazon, has accumulated a net worth of $105.1 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. This impressive figure comes as Amazon's stock price surged by nearly 57% over the past year, significantly boosting the company's market value.
At the start of this year, Amazon's stock price increased by 6.6%, reflecting continued investor confidence in the e-commerce giant. A recent report highlighted that during the five-week holiday sales period following Thanksgiving in the U.S., Amazon captured an impressive 89% of the online retail market, reinforcing its dominance in the digital space.
This recent stock performance has allowed Bezos to surpass Bill Gates' personal net worth record from 1999. In October last year, Bezos' net worth reached $93.8 billion, and just a month later, during the U.S. holiday shopping season—starting with Black Friday—he became the first person to cross the $100 billion net worth threshold.
If Gates, now 62 years old, had not donated a significant portion of his wealth, his net worth could have exceeded $150 billion. He has been actively donating to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation since 1996, giving away nearly 700 million Microsoft shares and over $2.9 billion in cash and other assets.
In addition to his role at Amazon, Bezos also owns Blue Origin, a space exploration company, and The Washington Post. His diverse business interests continue to shape the global tech and media landscape. (Liu Chun)
