Where did you put your hedge?

I normally don't like to time the market, but I put a hedge in money market and short-term CDs.

I'm curious where others put their hedge.

The market was due for a correction for a while, so I'm trying to save capital to buy after the overcorrection.

Was not confident that this wouldn't turn into a global recession so I didn't go with the option of buying European or global index funds. I've never gotten much value from them though I believe Europe is up 10%.
