(Bloomberg) – Pony Ma made $ 6.9 billion richer on Monday after a company backed by Tencent Holdings Ltd. On its plans to go public, while a public appearance by Jack Ma on Wednesday added $ 1.6 billion to his net worth

Although the Hong Kong market has proved particularly volatile lately – the benchmark Hang Seng Index gave up more than half of its gains on Tuesday – it was one of the highlights in the world this month.
