Larry Ellison, Oracle co-founder, has surpassed Elon Musk as the world's richest person. Ellison's net worth surged by $101 billion to $393 billion following Oracle's strong Q1 earnings, driven by soaring demand for its AI-related data center capacity. Oracle's stock jumped 40% on news of multibillion-dollar contracts with AI customers. This marks the biggest one-day wealth increase ever recorded by Bloomberg's Billionaire Index. Musk previously held the title, losing it briefly to others in the past.
