2025 CMT Global Investment Summit

August 19, 2025

Inaugural Riyadh Community Meeting

Building Saudi Arabia’s Technical Edge in Global Markets

About the Event

Join us to celebrate the launch of our Chapter in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia at our first  Riyadh Community Meeting. With Vision 2030, as Riyadh works to become a hub of market innovation, we bring together CMT charterholders, candidates, industry leaders, and academic stakeholders from across Saudi Arabia and beyond.

The meeting will feature a distinguished lineup of speakers from the United States and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia who bring decades of experience in global asset management, research, and trading.

Gain access to deep-dive presentations and candid discussions on technical analysis, macro market trends, AI and practical tools for navigating today’s complex financial landscape. This is more than a networking event; it’s a dynamic forum for elevating investment practice, strengthening professional networks, and exploring the future of finance in the Kingdom.

Agenda

4:30 PM – Registration & Networking

4:50 PM – Welcome Remarks: Abdulelah Al-Fouzan – Head of Investor and Corporate Relations, National Center for Privatization & PPP

5:00 PM – The Mindless Investor & The Mindful Investor: Mastering Market Discipline David Keller, CMT – President & Chief Strategist, Sierra Alpha Research LLC

David Keller contrasts the mindless investor, driven by noise and emotional bias, with the mindful investor, disciplined, intentional, and guided by technical analysis. This session will equip participants with practical tools to sharpen market awareness, reduce decision-making errors, and build a consistent, mindful investment process in today’s volatile markets.

5:25 PM –  Beyond Oil: Multi-Asset Strategies for Resilient Portfolios Damanick Dantes, CMT – Founder & Principal, Dantes Outlook LLC

Damanick Dantes, CMT will present a global investment framework designed to navigate oil-driven economies through diversification, technical analysis, and adaptive portfolio construction. He will focus on intermarket analysis, particularly using commodities as a signal for positioning within Saudi Arabia’s equity market. Dantes will also explore how the “oil curse”– including commodity price volatility, sector concentration, and macroeconomic instability–can undermine or, when diversified, present opportunities for long-term wealth creation.

5:50 PM – Sustainability of Rotation out of US Equities into Global and Emerging Equities Cedric Thompson, CMT, CFA – Investment Management Strategist, Trinidad and Tobago Unit Trust Corporation

Cederic Thompson will explore whether the rotation away from U.S. equities represents a temporary adjustment or a lasting structural trend. Using a technical lens, he will examine macroeconomic and geopolitical drivers, signals of relative strength in global and emerging markets, and the opportunities and risks of reallocating portfolios toward Asia, the Middle East, and other high-growth regions.

6:15 PM – Technical Analysis and AI for Macro Market Analysis Joel Pannikot – Managing Director, CMT Association

Artificial intelligence is reshaping how investors interpret global markets, but its real power emerges when paired with the discipline of technical analysis. In this session, Joel Pannikot will explore how AI can process vast data sets, reveal hidden correlations, and strengthen macro forecasting, while technical analysis grounds decision-making in timeless principles of market behavior. Attendees will discover how this fusion of technology and technical insight can sharpen market awareness and prepare professionals in KSA to thrive in an era of rapid innovation.

6:40 PM – From Vision to Action: CMT Riyadh Chapter Launch & Saudi Market Outlook Abdulelah Al-Fouzan – Head of Investor and Corporate Relations, National Center for Privatization & PPP

In this special session, Abdulelah Al-Fouzan will officially launch the CMT Riyadh Chapter and share insights on Saudi Arabia’s evolving financial landscape. His remarks will highlight local market developments, investment trends, and the role of the CMT community in strengthening KSA’s position within the global financial ecosystem.

7:00 PM – Closing Remarks Joel Pannikot – Managing Director, CMT Association
