Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has overtaken Amazon founder Jeff Bezos to become the world’s second-richest person, according to The Times of India. A recent surge in Meta’s stock, driven by investor optimism around AI and tech innovation, significantly boosted Zuckerberg’s net worth.

Bezos, now ranked third, has long been a major contender among the world's elite. The move highlights the unpredictable nature of tech-driven wealth, in which fortunes fluctuate in response to market trends and corporate performance.

Zuckerberg’s rise reflects Meta’s renewed momentum, while Bezos continues to lead through Amazon and his broader business interests. The latest reshuffle marks another chapter in the ongoing rivalry among tech’s wealthiest figures, The Times of India reported.
