رأسمالي رفيع أو فوق العادي

Explanation:
If you look at first link, you find the definition of Haute to mean "high", which links you to the following definitions of high in this context:

1. Greater than normal in degree or intensity or amount; "a high temperature"; "a high price"; "the high point of his career"; "high risks"; "has high hopes"; "the river is high"; "he has a high opinion of himself".

2. (literal meanings) being at or having a relatively great or specific elevation or upward extension; "a high mountain"; "high ceilings"; "high buildings"; "a high forehead"; "a high incline"; "a foot high"; sometimes used in combination; "knee-high grass".

3. Standing above others in quality or position; "people in high places"; "the high priest"; "eminent members of the community".

The first definition should suffice.

haute capitaliste الرأسمالي العصري

Explanation:
This is only a guess. "Haute" is "today" in German, so I figured the expression means something like "Today's Capitalist".
