Sergey Brin Drops to 4th Richest
Sergey Brin, one of the co-founders of Google, was the third richest person in the world for a short time.
His wealth comes from his shares in Alphabet, the company that owns Google.
However, the value of Alphabet's shares went down, and so did Sergey Brin's net worth.
This caused him to drop to the fourth position.
Larry Ellison, who owns Oracle, took his place as the third richest person.
Elon Musk is still the richest person in the world.
The changes in their wealth are due to how their companies' shares are doing in the stock market.
Sergey Brin's net worth dropped to $243.10 billion, moving him to the 4th richest position.
Alphabet shares fell 1.08% to $320.50, causing Brin's net worth to decrease by $2.5 billion.
Larry Ellison of Oracle overtook Brin, becoming the third richest with a net worth of $256.4 billion.
Larry Page, Google co-founder, remained the second richest with $262.2 billion.
Elon Musk remains the richest person with a net worth of $480.5 billion.
