Online summit

The ASX plus five global markets, compared side by side.

Our educators work from the ASX every day, and that remains the reference point here. This time it gets measured against five other markets. Wherever you’re based, most people watch their home market and the US. Very few look at Japan, Singapore or Taiwan with the same rigour, or know what sits underneath those indices and why they behave the way they do. This summit puts all five on the same screen and gives you the tools to compare them properly.

Our in-person events happen in Australia. This one comes to you.

Many MTM students live a long way from the Gold Coast and our other live events. The International Markets Summit is the flagship event built for you: the same educators and the same depth, delivered live online so you can take part from wherever you’re based.

  • Join live from anywhere. No flights or travel days. Bring your laptop and your questions.
  • Join in properly. The live polls and the allocation exercise mean you’re contributing, not just watching a stream.
  • Learn alongside the wider community. See how members in different countries answer the same question about the next decade.

WHO THIS IS FOR

You know your home market well. You suspect you’re missing part of the picture.

  • You’re part of the MTM community outside Australia, or too far from our in-person events, and you want a flagship event you can join from home.
  • Most of your attention goes to one or two markets (for many of us that’s the ASX and the US), and you’ve rarely looked properly at the others.
  • You hear “just buy the S&P 500” all the time, and you’d like to test that view yourself instead of taking it as given.
  • You’re investing for the long term, through dollar-cost averaging or regular contributions, and want to know where those dollars should go.
  • You want a repeatable way to compare markets, not a list of tips that goes out of date.
  • You’re a Gold Academy member who wants a deliberate, structured deep dive on global allocation that the daily calls don’t have time for.

Academy calls follow the market. This summit steps back from it.

Our weekly Academy Gold calls are built to respond to what’s happening right now: today’s setups, this week’s moves and the questions members bring. That’s their job, and they do it well. The summit has a different job. It spends a whole day on one big question, across five markets, with a structure you take part in from start to finish.

How the day works

You start with your own view. You finish with an informed one.

The summit is built so you can see how your thinking changes. You’ll commit to an answer at the start, work through the evidence, and then decide again.

  1. Opening poll – Which of the five markets do you believe will perform best over the next decade? You answer before any analysis.
  2. Your starting allocation – Build your portfolio allocation as you’d set it today, based on what you currently know.
  3. Global indices and their history – How the major indices have performed historically, and what that does and doesn’t tell you.
  4. What’s underneath each index – The sectors and companies that drive each market, and why markets with similar headlines behave very differently.
  5. Following global capital – Ratio and relative-strength analysis to compare markets and sectors, and to see where money is flowing.
  6. Second poll – The same question again, now that you’ve seen the evidence. Compare how the room’s view shifted, and how yours did.
  7. Rebalance – Revisit your starting allocation and adjust it based on what you’ve learned. This is your personal view, with your reasons written down.

You’ll leave with

A wider lens and a method you’ll keep using.

  • A broader view of global opportunities – Including the markets you’ve rarely looked at closely.
  • The ability to compare indices and sectors – Using ratio and relative-strength analysis you can repeat on your own.
  • A rebalanced view of your portfolio allocation – Before and after, with your reasoning recorded.
  • A framework for the S&P 500 question – A practical way to assess whether it remains the strongest long-term DCA option, now and in future.

This is the deep dive the weekly calls don’t have room for.

The calls keep you close to the market week by week. The summit gives you a day away from the noise to make a bigger, slower decision about where your long-term money goes, using a method you can bring back to every call afterwards.

Join David Bird, Craig Tapping, Jamie Bell and Tung Nguyen for one day to look at markets you might have been overlooking.

FAQs

What time does the event run, and is there anything after it?

The online event runs from 8:30am to 5:30pm AEST

I'm in Gold Academy. Isn't this covered on the calls?

The calls cover the market as it moves, mostly through the ASX and US. The summit is a structured, single-topic day across five markets with a before-and-after allocation exercise. It isn’t a replay of call content.

I'm not based in Australia. Is this relevant to me?

Yes. This event is designed for our global community. The ASX is the reference point because it’s where our educators work every day, but the method of comparing markets with ratio and relative-strength analysis works from any home market.

What time is it where I live?

The summit runs live in Australian time. [Start time in AEST, plus a few major time zones, e.g. NZ, Singapore, UK, US]

Do I need to bring anything?

No. Part of the purpose is to show you what’s out there and how to compare it, whether or not you decide to act on it.

Is there a dress code?

Can I buy tickets on the day?

No – all tickets must be purchased online in advance.

What do I need on the day?

What’s the difference between this event and your online courses?
