Transcript: Collapsing correlations boost real-assets appeal

Vince Childers of Cohen & Steers says inflation still matters, but diversification has become the stronger reason to own real assets

  • Real assets are becoming more attractive due to collapsing correlations with traditional equities and fixed income, offering strong diversification benefits.
  • Resource equities and listed infrastructure are currently favored for their well-behaved valuations and strong growth expectations, while commodities and real estate are viewed more neutrally.
  • Despite rising interest rates and potential risks like disinflation or AI-driven market concentration, real assets present a compelling value proposition due to their lower valuations compared to the broader market.
