Bezos adds another 2.5% to his fortune
Stock market buyers were caught up in the orgy of buying today, especially in shares of Amazon, which continues to dominate retail. AMZN shares climbed 2.5% to a record $1186.
That puts Jeff Bezos' share at more than $100 billion and makes him more than $10 billion richer than Bill Gates, who is the second-richest man.
