The wealth of the 10 richest people in the world – a list dominated by US tech billionaires – increased by a record amount after Donald Trump’s victory in the presidential election, according to a widely cited index.
The Bloomberg Billionaires Index estimated that the world’s 10 wealthiest people gained nearly $64bn (about £49.5bn) on Wednesday, the largest daily increase since the index began in 2012.
Elon Musk, the world’s richest person, registered the largest increase with a $26.5bn addition to his fortune, which now stands at $290bn. The prominent backer of Trump’s campaign, benefited from a surge in the share price of Tesla, the electric carmaker where he is chief executive and in which he owns a 13% stake.
The majority of the political videos showing up on my YouTube feed after the election was just right wingers laughing at “the left.”
Their whole identity is hating others.
Interesting they all of a sudden have absolutely zero concerns that our “deep state” will roll in any second now to undo the election
Trump on election night: “MASSIVE FRAUD IN PENNSYLVANIA, POLICE INCOMING!”
He wins big: “teehee, what fraud? I never said that.”
Trump is unaccountable, that’s apparently his identity. It doesn’t matter if he did say or didn’t say anything.
