00:00 Breaking news from the world of finance, Elon Musk, the visionary behind Tesla and SpaceX,
00:09 has been dethroned as the world's richest man for the first time in nine months.
00:14 Musk had slipped to the second position on the Bloomberg billionaire index, losing the
00:19 top spot to Amazon founder and former CEO Jeff Bezos.
00:23 The shift occurred after Tesla shares took a significant tumble, causing Musk's net
00:29 worth to drop by a staggering amount.
00:31 Meanwhile, Jeff Bezos reclaimed the title of the world's richest person with a fortune
00:37 totaling $200 billion.
00:40 The disparity in wealth reflects the contrasting trajectories of Amazon and Tesla stock.
00:46 While Amazon shares have soared, Tesla shares have faced a sharp decline since their peak
00:52 in 2021.
00:54 Elon Musk's financial woes may not end there, a recent court ruling striking down his $55
01:00 billion pay package at Tesla could further impact his wealth.
