world's richest man is no longer Elon Musk.

 According to Forbes, Elon Musk is no longer the richest person in the world.


Musk, the CEO of Twitter and Tesla, fell to second place on Forbes' list of "Real-Time Billionaires" on Thursday, trailing Bernard Arnault, the head of French luxury retailer LVMH, which produces Louis Vuitton luxury goods and Hennessy cognac. Musk's worth is currently estimated by Forbes at $183.6 billion, just shy of Arnault's $186.2 billion wealth.


Forbes pointed out on Wednesday that Musk has faced a "dramatic collapse of Tesla's share price," which is down 56% in 2022, but Arnault has risen due to LVMH's shares being largely flat this year. The way Musk interacts on Twitter with right-wing influencers may be having an effect on Tesla stock prices. During the month of November 2021, when Musk was

In order to pay for his $44 billion acquisition of Twitter, Musk just sold off nearly $4 billion of Tesla stock. Twitter is currently facing problems like layoffs and apprehensive advertisers concerned with the platform's future. When the news of Musk's purchase of Twitter first broke earlier this year, he had already sold blocks of Tesla shares for a total of $15.4 billion.




However, estimating Musk's overall wealth is challenging because a large portion of his wealth is invested in his private businesses, such as the internet and rocket company SpaceX, the tunnelling company The Boring Company, and the company Neuralink, which seeks to implant computer chips in people's brains.


Despite the losses, Musk remains far ahead of second- and third-placed billionaires Jeff Bezos and Gautam Adani of India, each of whom is believed to be worth $113.1 billion.

Musk holds a commanding first-place position on Bloomberg's Billionaires Index with a net worth of $171 billion. With a net worth of $166 billion, Arnault is in second place. Bloomberg estimates that Musk has lost around $100 billion so far this year. Each day after the market closes, that list is updated.

 Kou Itakura of Japan joins Takehiro Tomiyasu and Daniel Yabuki in jubilation following the World Cup match between Germany and Japan on November 23 at Khalifa International Stadium in Doha, Qatar. The Reuters Japan did the same, fending off Germany's ferocious attempts to salvage a point from the Group 'E' opener for both teams on Wednesday, less than 24 hours after Saudi Arabia lit up the FIFA World Cup with a shocking upset of Argentina. Takuma Asano eliminated Nico Schlotterbeck from the equation with a first touch for the ages after getting the ball wide out on the right from a free kick in his own area. Asano continued to run with the goal in his sights, but the shooting angle was getting more congested. For Asano to defeat Manuel Neuer, a monster shot was required. Asano, who came on as a replacement just before the hour mark, accomplished that. The ball made a clean connection with the goalie before crashing into the net's ceiling and bringing down the Khalifa S...
