You may have heard of the "banana zone," but do you know when it really arrives?

(Deep Tide Note: The "banana zone" refers to a special period in the financial market during which asset prices may experience a sharp rise.)

Here are 6 key indicators you shouldn't miss:

1. Small-cap stocks and the real economy

Indicator 1: Russell 2000 Index ($IWM)

Insight: $IWM represents small-cap stocks, which have recently started to break out. This index is an important indicator of the health of the real economy. As corporate earnings increase, more funds usually flow into these assets.

2. Rising risk appetite

Indicator: Trading volume of Russell 2000 ($IWM) and Nasdaq 100 ($QQQ)

Insight: The trading volume of $IWM also reflects the market's risk appetite. Recently, the trading volume of $IWM exceeded that of $QQQ ($140 billion vs. $120 billion). This rare occurrence last happened in 2017, indicating that investors are more inclined towards "risk investment."
