Unless you are able to reliably predict when the bear will start and end,
in which case you're way ahead of me, you need a strategy that will work in
both bear and bull markets.
In general, you need to diversify your holdings amongst major asset types
that do not move together. Which types, and what kind of allocation,
really depends on details of your financial situation, your risk tolerance,
and needs.
Spending less than your income is also important. That helps you to
weather the storms that will arise from time to time.

Every bear market in US history has ended. When it was over, there
were two widespread regrets:
1. Those who sold during the bear market regret it.
2. Those who did not buy during the bear market regret it.
