Sounds like many folks believe the S&P 500 is in big trouble..

I'm 36 and my 401k is currently 100% low fee S&P 500 index funds. Should I be looking to move this money into something else for a while?

nope just keep adding more. You can't touch your 401K for a long time just think of it as buying cheap here.

The inverse of the S&P? If you think the market is tanking.

You can't time the market, and you'll likely get burned trying.
If you were 76 I'd say yes, but you aren't so, no.

It's a good thing at 36 to be accumulating more shares

If you are 100% stocks and this dip is getting you concerned, you need to look at your tolerance for risk and adjust AA accordingly.

You're complaining about buying stocks for cheap?
Let it ride.

Be a contrarian....
if there's blood in the streets, buy buy buy
if there's dancing in the streets, sell sell sell...
actually just keep adding and pay no attention to the noise....
if things get rally bad, you wont need money anyway, you will need a gun...
in all fairness as already suggested, add a bond index fund allocation until you are at peace. Your bond percent should cover the money you cannot live without.
