(Note: Banana Zone refers to a special period in the financial market during which asset prices may rise sharply)

Here are 6 key metrics you can’t miss:

1. Small-cap stocks and the real economy

Indicator 1 : Russell 2000 Index ($IWM)

2. Rising risk appetite

Indicator 2 : Russell 2000 ($IWM) and Nasdaq 100 ($QQQ) trading volume

Insight : $IWM trading volume also reflects the market’s risk appetite. Recently, $IWM’s trading volume exceeded $QQQ ($14 billion vs. $12 billion). This rare situation last occurred in 2017, indicating that investors are more inclined to “risk-on”.

6. Corporate FOMO

Indicator 6 : Corporate BTC purchases
