Musk's Wealth Climbs To 335 Billion Over Tesla Surge, Ai Ambitions

Elon Musk's fortune soared by 18.2 billion on Thursday, April 24, following a strong rally in Tesla Inc.'s shares, which closed nearly 10 higher on the day.

According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Musk's net worth now stands at an estimated 335 billion.

Shares of Tesla, where Musk serves as chief executive, ended the trading session at 284.95, marking a 9.8 rise - the companys largest daily gain in several months.

The surge was driven by renewed investor confidence after Tesla posted better-than-expected quarterly results, alongside a series of analyst upgrades.

Despite the impressive one-day gain, Musk's wealth remains down by about 97.7 billion year-to-date, reflecting a 22.6 decline from January highs.
