As per recent reports, Meta’s CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, witnessed a remarkable financial comeback, emerging $27 billion richer as Meta’s quarterly profits recently surpassed Wall Street’s expectations. Following the surfacing of this data across the market, Meta shares further jotted down a 20% upswing, fueling Zuckerberg’s worth beyond $169 billion. This push aided him in securing the fourth spot on Bloomberg’s billionaire index, surpassing prominence like Bill Gates. Intriguingly, this surge in Zuckerberg’s wealth comes subsequent to a dip below $35 billion as of late 2022, resulting from a decline&nbsp;in&nbsp;tech&nbsp;stocks.
Furthermore, the surge in Meta’s stock also promises Zuckerberg a substantial annual payout of roughly $700 million from the company’s first-ever dividend for investors. This dividend and a $50 billion share buyback align with Meta’s state-of-the-art measures and strategic layoffs, propelling a tripled stock value in 2023.
Despite challenges, Zuckerberg continued to invest in <a href="https://coingape.com/glossary/artificial-intelligence/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">AI</a> and the metaverse for long-term gains. In 2022, Zuckerberg’s total compensation was $27.1 million, including security costs and a symbolic $1 base salary. However, Meta is yet to report executive compensation for the past year.
