### Comment:
If you are holding straight cash rather than bonds or another asset, then consider selling way OTM long-term cash secured puts on stock you would own if a recession happens. You won't get much premium for selling puts ~40% OTM but you'll get more than you'll make holding cash in a brokerage account. Plus if the market does tank then you'll get to the stocks you wanted.

### REPLY:
Better to sell calls if you think the market will tank, no?
