Jeff Bezos Added $13 Billion To His Net Worth In A Single Day This Week

The $13 billion addition to his net worth on Monday is just one tranche of the $74 billion wealth he's added since January 2020.

A looming question is whether these manifestations of Amazon's success will ultimately contribute to regulatory action based on the argument that this wealth accumulation would not be happening if the company were not, in fact, a monopoly. JL

Tom Huddleston reports in CNBC:

Bezos, who is the world’s wealthiest man, experienced the one-day spike in his net worth after Amazon stock surged during the day, thanks to a positive Wall Street forecast. Amazon shares spiked by 8% on Monday after a Goldman Sachs analyst raised his price target for the e-commerce giant. He’s on the precipice of becoming the first person in the world to officially boast a net worth of more than $200 billion. Bezos has added more than $74 billion to his net worth since the start of 2020.
Jeff Bezos had a pretty lucrative Monday.
The billionaire Amazon CEO set a record when his net worth jumped by $13 billion in just one day, on Monday, according to Bloomberg

The Bloomberg Billionaires Index put Bezos’ estimated net worth at $189.3 billion at the end of Monday. Bezos, who is the world’s wealthiest man according to both Bloomberg and Forbes, experienced the huge one-day spike in his net worth after Amazon stock surged during the day, thanks to a positive Wall Street forecast.
Amazon shares spiked by 8% on Monday after a Goldman Sachs analyst raised his price target for the e-commerce giant. Goldman Sachs raised its price target for Amazon, which projects what the stock’s value will be within the next 12 months, by about 28%, to $3,800 per share. The stock opened trading on Tuesday valued at $3,232.49 per share.
The bulk of Bezos’ personal wealth is tied to his more than 57 million shares of Amazon stock, so the company’s stock spike also sent his net worth soaring to the point that he’s on the precipice of becoming the first person in the world to officially boast a net worth of more than $200 billion. (Bezos likely would have already passed that milestone were it not for his nearly $40 billion divorce settlement with ex-wife MacKenzie Bezos in 2019.)
Of course, it’s nothing new for Bezos to experience huge wealth fluctuations. Any large swing in the stock market can mean billions of dollars lost or gained in a single afternoon for the world’s wealthiest man. (Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is second on Bloomberg’s billionaire rankings, with an estimated net worth of $118 billion, as of Tuesday.)
In fact, Bezos lost over $7 billion from his net worth overnight in early-March after the global coronavirus pandemic roiled global markets and sent Amazon’s stock plunging. However, Amazon’s business has mostly performed well throughout the pandemic, as global lockdowns led to more customers shopping online while many of Amazon’s brick-and-mortar competitors struggled or shut down.
In general, billionaires have seen their net worths swell this year, even with unemployment numbers soaring, as markets have rebounded from losses experienced during the beginning of the pandemic. Bezos himself has added more than $74 billion to his net worth since the start of 2020, according to Bloomberg’s estimates.
The rise in Bezos’ wealth has further increased speculation that he could eventually become the world’s first trillionaire.

“I invested with a Crypto broker without proper research to know what I was hoarding my hard-earned money into, only to find out it was a hoax and sham. I invested over $180,000 USD estimated to be 6.3 BTC. I was unable to make any withdrawals out of my initial deposits let alone the gains he claimed I have earned even after meeting the bogus fees and charges he is always requesting. Fortunately, I got to know about Century Hacker's Bitcoin recovery programmers through research and positive reviews on Google. After a couple of hours consulting with them, all my funds were recovered including my profits. I can’t thank these guys enough for making me not another prey to these scammers.
