It is riskier on the indices most likely, and the main constituents of said indices.
Disagree, I would rather be short calls on indices and short puts on meme stocks (in terms of risk profile, obviously the IV compensates for these preferences to some extent)

I mean. I would also rather be short puts on meme stocks, but that wasn't part of the question. Why would you want to be short calls on the indices?

I’d rather be short calls on indices than short puts on indices (because an index almost never rallies 40% in two months but it can drop 40% in two months)
