This market will resolve according to the name ranked #3 on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index on December 31, 2026, 5:30 PM ET. The primary resolution source for this market will be the Bloomberg Billionaires Index (https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/). If the data for the specified date is not released by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, the Forbes Real-Time Billionaires List will be used (https://www.forbes.com/real-time-billionaires/#6aa3f0213d78). If neither source provides the specified date's data by January 2, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve according to the latest data point available on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.Trader consensus gives Larry Ellison a slim 40% implied probability edge for third-richest on December 31, 2026, amid a neck-and-neck contest with Jeff Bezos (39%), Sergey Brin (38%), and Larry Page (35.5%), reflecting razor-thin net worth gaps projected from current standings where Alphabet's post-earnings stock surge vaulted Page to $325B (#2) and Brin to $301B (#3) yesterday, leapfrogging Bezos ($283B, #4) while Ellison sits at $213B (#6). Oracle's accelerating AI cloud deals and partnerships position Ellison for catch-up growth, contrasting Alphabet's AI-fueled volatility and Amazon's steadier AWS trajectory; upcoming quarterly earnings, Fed policy shifts, and tech sector rotations could tip the scales in this high-stakes billionaire showdown driven by real capital at risk.
