Tech Moguls Gain $288 Billion During Trump's Year
Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jensen Huang — four tech billionaires who attended or whose companies donated to President Donald Trump's 2025 inauguration — collectively saw their net worth rise by $288 billion over his first year in office. Bloomberg Billionaires Index figures show individual changes (Musk +52%, Huang +32%) and note a $194 billion group loss during Trump's first 100 days before recovery as of Jan. 19, 2026.
