How are you investing in this recession?

In what are you investing now and in what are you planning to invest in the following 3, 6, and 12 months (assuming an incoming recession)?

Also, more as a curiosity, should Hedge Fund and retail investors invest differently in a recession or both could apply the same strategy?
