Nvidia hitting $3 trillion propels Jensen Huang’s wealth above Michael Dell’s

Nvidia Corp.’s Jensen Huang has steadily climbed the ranks of the world’s wealthiest as the market value of his computer-chip maker touches $3 trillion.

Huang hit another milestone on Friday, passing personal computer pioneer Michael Dell to become the world’s 13th-richest person with a net worth of $106.1 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. His wealth has surged more than $62 billion this year as demand for Nvidia chips used to power artificial intelligence tasks remains insatiable.
