Fortune reached out to Dell for comment.
Dell and Nvidia are both frontrunners in the technology industry—from developing and selling IT products, to manufacturing GPUs—and there’s no telling how the AI revolution will boost their fortunes. Because of the tech explosion, both of the CEOs’ fortunes have swelled over the last year, with Huang reaping $24.8 billion, and Dell raking in $14 billion.
It’ll be a tough fight between the two tech titans to see who can be in the upper echelons of the world’s wealthiest. Both Dell and Nvidia are performing above estimates, so it could ultimately boil down to who sells more shares sooner.
The list has been shaken up in other ways as well. In January of this year, many billionaires were enjoying a honeymoon period of wealth; ultra-wealthy leaders Musk, Zuckerberg, and Ellison were riding a wealth surge of $10 billion daily. In total, the collective fortune of the world’s richest people saw their honey pot swell by $314 billion. At the beginning of February, Musk’s net worth stood at $433 billion, Zuckerberg had $243 billion, and Bezos boasted $256 billion.
