Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'fundamental' (essential, core) + 'analysis' (systematic examination) yields an examination of basic or core factors. A B1 learner who knows both words can infer it refers to analysing essential aspects (in finance, the firm's fundamentals), so the phrase is transparently derived from its constituents.
Etymology
Fundamental analysis comes from the idea of checking the fundamental parts of a company and doing a careful analysis, like a builder testing a house's foundation to see if it is strong. That's why it means 'to study a company's basic facts carefully to judge its true value' before you invest.
