The ultra-rich owners of the world's leading luxury brands took a hit to their fortunes on Tuesday. LVMH shares fell as much as 7% in Paris on Tuesday, slashing the value of his stake by about $13 billion, before paring their decline to 3%. Arnault ranked as the world's fourth-richest person with a $197 billion net worth at Monday's market close, per the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. Pinault was 83rd in the wealth rankings with a $24 billion fortune at Monday's close, down more than $11 billion this year. For example, the Dumas family owes most of its estimated $150 billion fortune to Hermès stock, which slid 3% on Tuesday.
