Frequently Asked Questions
- Why do billionaires get richer or poorer in a single day?
- Most of a billionaire's fortune is held in publicly-traded company stock. When that stock's price rises or falls during the trading day, the value of their holdings — and therefore their net worth — moves with it, often by billions of dollars.
- How is the daily change in net worth calculated?
- We take each person's estimated number of shares in their main public company and multiply the day's price move by that share count. That gives the dollar change to their public-equity wealth for the day.
Explanations describe the mechanical driver (the underlying stock's move), not the news behind it. Figures are directional estimates from public holdings, not audited valuations.
