The stock market rally in 2023 has added $213 billion to the wealth of the world's top 10 billionaires

• A strong start to the stock market this year has helped reverse some of the big losses billionaires saw in 2022.
• So far this year, the world's top 10 billionaires added a collective $213 billion to their net worth.
• The top billionaires include Bernard Arnault, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, and Warren Buffett.

The world's top 10 billionaires have added a collective $213 billion to their net worth so far this year after a strong start to the stock market helped boost the stock prices of the businesses they own.

The massive gain is a partial reversal of the more than $575 billion lost by the group of tech entrepreneurs and business owners during the 2022 stock market sell-off, in which the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 index declined by 33%.

These are the top billionaires that have seen a surge in their net worth so far this year as the stock market jumps, according to data from Bloomberg.
