Notes to answerer
Asker: are you sure? THis is what I thought, too, but then I find in glossaries on the net that this term is the same as "long position". I became hesitant and thought is this the right translation, or should I translate it as "hän lisäsi osakeomistustaan".

Asker: I *am* researching, that's why I posted the question, it's part of the research :)

I agree with Jari: "hän säilytti osake-enemmistön" is a good equivalent
