What should you take a position in?
If you could be 100% sure how the market was going to go (up, down, sideways), you could make a lot of money trading options. It's when you're only 65% sure that's difficult.
Traditionally gold.

However, at this point in the cycle most people have missed the boat. Probably best to ride out the cycle (assuming you have a diverse portfolio).
