  Jeff Bezos just passed Bill Gates for world’s richest person

  超越比尔.盖茨,亚马逊CEO贝佐斯成世界新首富!

  Jeff Bezos has leapfrogged Bill Gates again for the title of world’s richest billionaire. But they’re both having a pretty good day.

  杰夫·贝佐斯再度超越比尔·盖茨,成为世上最为富有的亿万富翁。但是,他俩过得很好。

  Amazon stock jumped 13.5% on Friday after the company turned in another incredible earnings report -- more than a quarter-billion dollars in profit in three months.

  周五,亚马逊股票上涨了13.5%,此前该公司又上交了一份令人难以置信的收益报告——三个月内的利润超过2.5亿美元。

  Bezos owned nearly 80 million shares in Amazon as of August, according to the most recent available data from FactSet. He made more than $10 billion from the one-day stock surge and is now worth well over $90 billion.

  根据FactSet最近数据,截止8月,贝佐斯在亚马逊拥有近8000万股份。他从(周五)这一天的股票大涨中赚了100多亿美元,现在身价超过900亿美元。

  At the end of trading on Thursday, Gates occupied the top spot in the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, with a net worth of $88 billion. Bezos had $83.5 billion, and his big day on Friday was more than enough to close the gap.

  在周四交易结束时,盖茨在彭博亿万富翁指数上占据榜首,净资产880亿美元。贝佐斯有835亿美元,他周五的重要日子足以弥补这一差距。

  But Gates also got a boost as Microsoft stock rose 7%. Gates owned 103 million shares as of September, according to FactSet. Microsoft stock climbed about $6 a share, so Gates added almost $600 million to his personal wealth.

  但是,盖茨也有所提升,微软股票上涨了7%。根据FactSet,截止9月,盖茨拥有1.03亿股份。微软股票上涨了约6美元每股,所以盖茨的个人财富增加了近6亿美元。

  Bezos briefly dethroned Gates once before, on July 27, when his net worth topped $90 billion because of a temporary surge in Amazon stock.

  贝佐斯曾暂时取代过盖茨一次,7月27日,当时由于亚马逊股票临时大涨,他的净资产到了900亿美元。
