Eyal Ofer, who previously held the top spot, has dropped to second place among Israeli billionaires. He experienced a substantial loss of $177 million this past week, bringing his personal fortune to $33.4 billion and ranking him 70th worldwide, just three positions behind his brother.

The financial markets will continue to be monitored to see if Eyal Ofer can regain the top position or if Idan Ofer will solidify his lead.
