    According to Bloomberg’s tally, Elon Musk has taken the title of the world’s richest person. The Tesla CEO was ousted from the top spot by French luxury brand LVMH (LVMHF) CEO Bernard Arnault in December last year, leaving Musk at No. 2 for more than two months.

    However, as of Monday, Bloomberg reports that a rally in Tesla stock has pushed Musk back to the top of its real-time billionaire index. According to Bloomberg, after the market closed on Monday, Musk’s net worth stood at $187.1 billion, more than Arnault’s wealth of $185.3 billion.

Late last year, Musk became the first person to lose $200 billion in wealth – his net worth falling from $340 billion in November 2021 to $137 billion in December 2022.
