    New Delhi: The CEO of Meta, Mark Zuckerberg faced a significant financial setback, losing approximately USD 3 billion in just one day. His net worth dropped by USD 2.79 billion to USD 176 billion, as per the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. Meta’s suite of platforms, including Facebook, Messenger, and Threads were affected by the global outage which hit social media platforms on Tuesday, March 5th, 2024, disrupting billions of users. 

    Even with the considerable decline, Zuckerberg might still hold onto his rank as the world’s fourth-richest person. The outage led to a 1.6 per cent drop in Meta’s share, which impacted Mark Zuckerberg’s overall wealth. Meta’s shares closed the overnight trading session on Wall Street at USD 490.22 per share.
