> In the past few decades, the global wealth inequality has decreased significantly

I'm guessing that you are thinking about the number of people that have risen from poverty (lead by China, not US) because I could not find one source that is talking about decreased global wealth inequality. In fact, every single source that I could find on a short notice is talking about the rise of global wealth inequality in the last few decades.

Can you share your sources.

That is about global income, not wealth.
