The world’s top 10 billionaires have added a collective $213 billion to their net worth so far this year after a strong start to the stock market helped boost the stock prices of the businesses they own.

The massive gain is a partial reversal of the more than $575 billion lost by the group of tech entrepreneurs and business owners during the 2022 stock market sell-off, in which the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 index declined by 33%.

These are the top billionaires that have seen a surge in their net worth so far this year as the stock market jumps, according to data from Bloomberg.
