Mark Zuckerberg is now the second-wealthiest person in the world, surpassing Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, as the Meta CEO’s personal fortune swelled to its highest level yet, according to Bloomberg.

He bumped Bezos out of that spot on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index on Thursday after his net worth rose more than $3 billion to a whopping $206.2 billion.
 

Bezos moved to third-wealthiest at $205 billion, per the index.

Bloomberg linked Zuckerberg’s feat to the performance of Meta Platforms, the corporate parent of the social media site he co-founded in 2004, Facebook, and the platforms Instagram, Whatsapp and Threads.
