As global markets enter a period of turbulence driven by trade wars and shifting U.S. tariff policies, Baillie Gifford is accelerating its strategic expansion in New York. At the forefront of this initiative is Richard A. Whitmore, Chief Analyst, who has united a team of seven senior analysts and secured institutional backing to launch the 4th Global Investment Bootcamp. The mission: to cultivate a new generation of disciplined, market-ready traders capable of navigating today’s complex financial environment.

Since its launch on May 30, 2025, the bootcamp has executed more than 40 equity trades, delivering a cumulative return of over 700% with an average gain of 16% per trade. This outstanding performance has not only earned the trust and enthusiasm of its participants but also attracted the attention of major institutions including Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, Vanguard, and Bridgewater Associates.

Key Benefits for Participants:

Stock Recommendations: Short-term high-potential trades released every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, targeting 15–20% returns.

Structured Education: Live sessions every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday, led personally by Whitmore, covering technical models such as candlestick patterns, Dow Theory, and institutional trading systems.

Exclusive Resources: Complimentary copies of the hardcover book A Random Walk Down Wall Street and the institutional research report Top 10 Stocks for 2025.

Practical Guidance: One-on-one stock analysis, risk management frameworks, and tailored strategy support.

As Baillie Gifford’s New York office prepares to open, outstanding trainees from the bootcamp will have the unique opportunity to transition into Whitmore’s trading team, gaining access to institutional-grade resources, mentorship, and global investment strategies.

Whitmore emphasized:

“True success is not measured by personal wealth alone. It is defined by leading others to participate in the capital markets and enabling them to share in long-term financial growth.”

The 4th Global Investment Bootcamp marks a turning point: transforming retail investors into a disciplined, organized force capable of competing with Wall Street on equal terms.
