Gemini 3-Fueled Alphabet Rally Briefly Puts Larry Page at No. 3 on Rich List

Investor enthusiasm for Google’s new Gemini 3 model drove a brief Alphabet rally that reshuffled real-time billionaire rankings.

Overview

  • Alphabet shares jumped as much as about 6% intraday on the Gemini 3 debut before easing to roughly 3% by the afternoon, according to multiple reports.
  • Larry Page’s fortune rose by roughly $6 billion to $7.6 billion on the day, lifting him above Jeff Bezos to third on real-time wealth lists, with figures later partially settling.
  • Sergey Brin also posted multi‑billion gains and moved up the rankings, with several outlets placing him fifth after the stock move.
  • D.A. Davidson called Gemini 3 a genuinely strong model and their current favorite generally available system, while Bank of America described it as a positive step that narrows perceived performance gaps.
  • Google said Gemini 3 improves complex prompting and will roll into Search, the Gemini app, and enterprise services, as outlets noted divergent estimates for the founders’ stakes and net worths.
