Oracle’s co-founder had a jaw-dropping May. Ellison’s net worth jumped by $71 billion — the largest single-month gain on the list — bringing his total to an estimated $276 billion. The surge is largely credited to Oracle’s growing dominance in AI infrastructure, with investors betting big on the company’s cloud and AI expansion strategy.
🥈 Michael Dell — Close Second (+$67 Billion)
Dell Technologies founder Michael Dell wasn’t far behind, adding $67 billion as the AI rally turbocharged Dell’s stock valuation. His rise pushed him ahead of Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg in the rankings, landing him at No. 6.
🥉 Elon Musk — Still on Top (+$53 Billion)
Elon Musk remains the world’s richest person by a staggering margin. In May alone, he added $53 billion, pushing his total net worth to an astronomical $835 billion. His wealth is driven by his stakes in SpaceX, Tesla, and other ventures. Learn more about Musk’s business empire on our dedicated tech coverage.
Notable Storylines This Month
Mark Zuckerberg slips to #7 — Despite adding $7 billion to his fortune, Meta’s stock rose only 3% — lagging behind other major tech companies. At just 41, Zuckerberg remains the youngest person in the top 10. His estimated net worth stands at $217 billion.
Bernard Arnault bounces back — The French luxury tycoon and LVMH boss had dropped out of the top 10 for the first time in three years in April. A 4% rise in LVMH shares helped him claw back to 9th place, making him the only non-American on the list.
Steve Ballmer returns — Former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer re-entered the top 10 at No. 10, helped by a strong 10% gain in Microsoft shares. He had previously fallen off the list in February.
Jensen Huang holds at #8 — The Nvidia CEO and semiconductor visionary sits at $182 billion, cementing his position as one of the biggest beneficiaries of the global AI boom. For more on Nvidia’s AI-driven growth, check out our latest tech news.

According to Forbes’ Billionaires ranking methodology, net worths are estimated based on stock holdings, known assets, and publicly available financial information — making real-time fluctuations like these entirely possible within a single month.
