Elon Musk is keeping his second place on the richest person in the world list in July as his fortune rose by 0.62% at the end of trading on Wednesday.

The billionaire has been jostling the position with French businessman, Arnault Bernard, who is listed as the third richest person in the world by Forbes.

After capital market activities ended, Musk made $1.1 billion due to a 0.34% uptick in Tesla's share value on Wednesday, which ended the day at $646.98 per share, against Tuesday's $644.78.

Musk owns 20% of Tesla, however, half of the American businessman's stake has been offered as collateral for loans - and with the surge in Tesla value, he is now worth $171 billion.

Tesla makes one billion dollar profit in Q2

Musk's $1.14 billion gain comes at a period that the automotive manufacturer announced that it made $1 billion profit after producing and delivering over 200,000 vehicles.

It had been projected that Tesla would record revenue of $11.30 billion in Q2 2021, but the company surpassed the estimate as it generated $11.96 billion.

The carmaker, which has 598 stores and service centers, also generated $951 million from services and other revenues, according to Tesla financial statements for second quarter.
