"Oracle hit a record market cap of $586B and Larry Ellison owns XX% of the company ($240B) making him 2nd richest person in the world. At the end 2010 Oracle valued at $87B and Ellison owned XX% of it ($24B).

Ellison didnt sell into the buyback program and increased his stake from XX% to XX% (he owned XX% of Oracle at its 1986 IPO).
