That depends on your overall financial plan and other assets. And it depends on whether your 40l(k) offers a safe, cash-like option (many don’t).
Read this about rolling over after retirement, knowing you will need some long-term growth given by stocks to offset future inflation.
And this would be a good time to make an appointment with a fee-only FIDUCIARY financial advisor to go over your entire plan for retirement. Read this link.
