Elon Musk Remains in First Place After Tesla Sales Success, While Warren Buffett Drops to 10th Place for the First Time in Many Years!

June was a busy month for billionaires. Elon Musk stayed at the top of the Forbes ranking, mainly due to the excellent performance of Tesla. Musk’s fortune increased by US$ 11.1 billion (R$ 61.9 billion) since June 1, totaling nearly US$ 19 billion (R$ 106 billion) in the last two months.

SpaceX, another of Musk’s companies, is about to sell shares in an offering that values the company at US$ 210 billion (R$ 1.1 trillion), an increase from US$ 180 billion (R$ 1 trillion) last December. Musk holds an estimated 42% stake in the company.

Bernard Arnault, who was the richest person in the world from February until the end of May, dropped to 3rd place due to the decline in shares of the LVMH group for the second consecutive month.

The biggest winner of the month was Larry Ellison, whose fortune increased by US$ 26.8 billion (R$ 149.5 billion), reaching an estimated US$ 173 billion, as Oracle shares hit all-time highs.

Warren Buffett revealed in the last week of June that he donated shares of Berkshire Hathaway worth about US$ 5.3 billion. This donation, along with a slight drop in the holding’s stock value, led him to 10th place in the billionaire ranking as of July 1, the lowest position Buffett, the world’s largest philanthropist, has held in years.

China has been trying for 13 years to build a railway in the Gobi Desert to reach Mongolia, and there are still 20 kilometers left that no one can finish due to a problem that seems impossible to solve.

Without a blueprint, without an engineer, and using scrap from the dump, a father spends 15 years building an 18-room castle for his daughter, featuring tram tracks, 13 fireplaces, and over 700 m², which may now be demolished.

Billions of barrels on the equatorial margin could lead Amapá to double its oil production in Brazil — the state wants to enter the route of companies in the Campos Basin, attract investments, and boost jobs and businesses in the oil and gas sector.

Without bricks, without cement, and without endless construction: the cardboard house that is assembled in modules and can be moved.

Without bricks, without cement, and without endless construction: the cardboard house that is assembled in modules and can be moved.

Government unlocks R$ 554 million for a highway that has been requested for decades and accelerates the duplication of BR.

Without a blueprint, without an engineer, and using scrap from the dump, a father spends 15 years building an 18-room castle for his daughter, featuring tram tracks, 13 fireplaces, and over 700 m², which may now be demolished.

Heineken’s factory in Brazil produces 300 million beer cans in just 4 months, reaches 1 million hectoliters, received R$ 2.5 billion, and is already projecting an annual capacity of 5 million with sustainable technology.

Seen from space, a colossal volcano nearly 5,000 meters high in Russia has released 1,600 km of smoke over the Pacific, forming “devil’s horns” of lava and revealing the brutal force of the Ring of Fire.

Inside an active volcano in Africa, residents use volcanic rocks to build houses in an impressive setting.

After 14 years of waiting, a rammed earth mansion built in 1702 in the North Zone of São Paulo will become a park with leisure facilities and green areas, with a million-dollar investment.
