Klipc reports: As Tesla's stock price plunged on Monday, data shows that Musk now has a net worth of $197.7 billion, while Bezos' fortune is $200.3 billion. Musk lost his seat as the world's richest man in favor of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.
Goldman Sachs analysts said that the sharp drop in Tesla's stock price is mainly closely related to sales data in the Chinese market, Tesla implemented a price reduction strategy in China in January, but sales did not increase, and it also faces fierce competition. According to the data, shipments from the Shanghai factory fell to their lowest point in more than a year, while at the same time, Amazon also achieved its best sales growth since the pandemic.
According to data collected by Klipc, BYD's wholesale sales in February were 121748 units, while Tesla's wholesale sales fell 19% year-on-year to 60,365 units, the lowest level in nearly two years.
"This is the first time since 2021 that Bezos has topped the list of the world's richest people, and it is worth mentioning that at the peak of Musk's wealth, the wealth gap between him and Bezos was as high as $142 billion, but as the stock prices of Amazon and Tesla move in opposite directions, this gap is also narrowing," Klipc analysts said. ”
Although both companies are part of the "tech giants", Amazon's share price has been significantly higher since 2022 and is close to its all-time high, while Tesla is the worst performer, with its share price almost halving its peak. It is worth mentioning that since the beginning of this year, Tesla's stock price has accumulated **25%, which is far inferior to the performance of US stocks**.
Goldman Sachs analysts said: "From the polarization of Amazon and Tesla's stock prices, it can be known that the hot spot of the market has shifted from electric vehicles to AI, and this time Musk's wealth is not only fluctuating by Tesla, but also today the judge annulled Musk's $55 billion compensation plan in Tesla." ”
In addition, in addition to Bezos, CEO Jensen Huang has risen to No. 20 with a net worth of $75 billion.
