tiré parti benefited/profited etc. Explanation: This is one version but I imagine it would depend on the style of what appears to be some kind of portfolio/investment management comment being translated. It could be nuanced by how they benefited from these stocks though, e.g. if they invested in them before an upswing, took profits after recording gains, etc, etc, but that'll probably be clearer from the context. |
