Jeff Bezos Is Now
Worth More Than Bill Gates Ever Was
Jeff Bezos's net worth reached $105.1 billion Monday on
the Bloomberg Billionaires Index as Amazon.com Inc. shares added to
a 12-month surge that's lifted the online shopping giant's market
value by almost 57 percent.
Amazon shares have risen 6.6 percent this year, with a
report showing the Seattle-based company captured 89 percent of
online spending among dominant holiday retailers in the five-week
period beginning the day after Thanksgiving in the U.S.
The latest jump has pushed Bezos's fortune definitively
above the high reached by Microsoft Corp.'s Bill Gates in 1999. The
Amazon founder passed Gates in October with a net worth of $93.8
billion and his fortune crossed $100 billion for the first time a
month later when the holiday shopping season kicked off on Black
Friday.
亚马逊股价今年上涨了6.6%，一份报告显示该公司在美国感恩节后的第五周内占据了主要零售商89%的在线消费。
最近的一次上涨使得Bezos的财富明显高于微软公司Bill
Gates在1999年达到的高度。亚马逊创始人10月份超过了Gates，净资产达938亿美元，而他的财富首次突破1000亿美元则是从黑色星期五假日购物季节开始。
