Morphology

market + strategist

The compound is fully compositional: 'market' (commerce/financial markets) + 'strategist' (person who plans strategy) yields 'a strategist who develops strategies for markets.' This is a regular noun–noun combination and cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents would readily infer the intended (finance) meaning.

Etymology

The noun market strategist comes from the picture of a leader watching the financial market like a battlefield and making careful plans as a strategist, choosing where to put money. That's why it means 'a professional who studies markets and advises investors'.
