That isn't what Market Analysis does. Market Analysis is about spotting trends in the trade of financial instruments (bills, bonds, cash, debt, futures, options, stock, etc.) by sifting through data, and then capitalizing on those trends. You don't have to understand the driving forces (that's Economics) or the quality of the goods (that's Connoisseur). I could get rich trading stock in FNRD simply by watching ticker behavior, without having any clue what FNRD produces, how their products or services stack up against the competition, or what world events might affect those products, services, or competition.
