Where are you invested?

Cash? Long or short equities? Long or short bonds? Long or short real estate? Crypto? (lol).

Thinking about buying some QID or PSQ and SPY puts rather than staying in cash. I'm having difficulty seeing how we aren't currently in and will continue to go deeper into a bear market at least for the foreseeable future.

Am I completely off the mark or are others getting short equities right now as well?

Long equities VOO/SPY, TSLA, AAPL, and mostly tech oriented players. The current dip is unfortunate, but I entered this market a long time ago and I am still in the money. I don't need my assets to be liquid for anything, so I can simply wait until they recover.

If I have time I do intraday swing-trades on TSLA with 50-100K just for fun.
