4 investment strategists break down where the rich are parking their money to beat inflation

• With rampant inflation and the S&P 500 down 18% YTD, alternative investments are hotter than ever.
• The options span from private equity to pre-IPO tech companies and more obscure assets like farmland.
• Four investment strategy heads told Insider what’s hot with the rich and their advisors.

Recently, Alex Chaloff has noticed a habit with new clients. 

The co-head of investment strategies at Bernstein Private Wealth Management, Chaloff has seen new investors, even “non-sophisticated” ones, mark up their portfolio recommendations with a highlighter to mark everything they think is sensitive to inflation.

“That’s a conversation that didn’t really exist 12 months ago,” Chaloff told Insider.
