Meta Platforms (META) Stock Price, Quote, News & History | Benzinga

Elon Musk is worth more than Jeff Bezos, Larry Page and Michael Dell combined, and the gap at the top of the world's rich list keeps growing. The 10 richest people in the world are worth about $3.05 trillion combined, according to the Forbes Real-Time Billionaires list as of its Sept. 27, 2026 update. Musk leads at roughly $929 billion from Tesla and SpaceX. That is about 30% of the group's total wealth, and it puts him far ahead of anyone else on the list. SpaceX's June 2026 IPO briefly made him the first trillionaire before the stock pulled back. Jeff Bezos is No. 2 at $369.6 billion. His fortune has risen by more than a third since the start of September, driven by Amazon stock and a much higher Forbes valuation of his rocket company Blue Origin. Google cofounder Larry Page is No. 3 at $282.3 billion. Michael Dell is No. 4 at $273.7 billion after record AI server demand lifted Dell Technologies shares. Sergey Brin is No. 5 at $259.8 billion. Mark Zuckerberg is No. 6 at $257.6 billion. Meta shares rallied more than 30% in September after the launch of its Muse AI assistant. Nvidia's Jensen Huang is No. 7 at $194.9 billion. Larry Ellison is No. 8 at $181.1 billion, down about 6% on the month as Oracle stock slid. Former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer is No. 9 at $160.2 billion. Warren Buffett rounds out the top 10 at $143.7 billion at age 96. All 10 are U.S. citizens, and nine built their fortunes in tech. Buffett is the only exception. For investors, this list shows how concentrated the market's gains are. The biggest fortunes on Earth now depend mostly on the stock prices of a few AI, cloud and chip giants. That means the ranking can change quickly when shares move. $TSLA. $SPCX. $AMZN. $GOOGL. $DELL. $META. $NVDA. $ORCL. $MSFT. $BRK.B. #richestpeople #elonmusk #billionaires 🌐 Find more market-moving insights at https://www.benzinga.com — your one-stop destination for the latest financial news, data, and expert analysis to stay ahead of the markets. 🖥️ Want the same tools the pros use—without the $10K Bloomberg terminal?
