Ellison’s net worth is now approximately $206 billion, according to Forbes’ real-time billionaires list. Bezos, who has fluctuated between the second and third positions since 2016, now has a net worth of $203 billion. Ellison’s considerable wealth has been accumulated through his leadership in enterprise software, including his role in driving technology innovation, strategic acquisitions, and investments. His visionary approach and business savvy have significantly impacted both the tech industry and Oracle’s global presence.
Oracle’s stock has surged 20% in September, largely driven by the company’s involvement in the artificial intelligence boom. Since the close of trading on Friday, Ellison’s net worth has increased by $8.1 billion, reaching around $206 billion, as reported by Forbes. This rise is partly attributed to Oracle’s strong earnings report last week, which exceeded expectations and led to an upgraded revenue forecast for fiscal 2026.
According to Forbes’ list, Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg is the fourth-richest person globally with a net worth of $184.6 billion, while Bernard Arnault & family hold the fifth position with $171.6 billion.
