Elon Musk remains the world’s richest person in 2025 with a net worth of $369 billion, according to Benzinga. The Tesla CEO holds his standing, even after a $63.5 billion year-to-date drop in net worth amid a 15.9% decline in Tesla stock, according to Benzinga. Bloomberg ranks Musk well ahead of second-place Mark Zuckerberg, who sits at $245 billion. Musk’s fortune, largely tied to Tesla, SpaceX, and xAI, exceeds the combined market value of Stellantis, Ford, GM, and Toyota, totaling $357.2 billion. Tesla briefly lost $152 billion in market cap after Musk feuded with President Trump but has since partially rebounded. Musk crossed $400 billion in late 2024 and could regain that milestone if Tesla rallies on robotaxi developments.
