Elon Musk's Net Worth Just Took a Record-Breaking Nose Dive
Elon Musk's insane net worth has taken a record-breaking nose dive, Bloomberg reports.
On Tuesday this week, the Tesla CEO lost $16.3 billion in a single day thanks to his car company's stock value dropping by 21.06 percent — Musk's personal loss is the largest single-day drop ever recorded on Bloomberg's Billionaires Index (BBI). The publication states that this follows news of a partnership between competitor companies Nikola Corp. and General Motors Co.
Tuesday was a crappy day for Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg, too — they lost $7.3 billion and $4.3 billion respectively.
However, before you whip out the world's tiniest violin and begin playing condolence tunes for these three horsemen (who's the fourth? Trump? Pence? name your pick in the comments), remember that Musk is still worth a staggering $82.23 billion, Besoz is still the richest man on the planet, and Zuckerberg is still...well, himself.
