Ugyanaz a cikk, amelyből korábbi kérdéseim vetődtek fel, azt írja, hogy a portfóliójukat maguk sem ismerő bankok "kivárásra rendezkedtek be". Hogyan lehetne ezt angolul elegánsan visszaadni?

: A "kivárásra rendezkedtek be" nekem is azt jelenti, hogy kivárják a végét, és utána mozdulnak. Nálunk így mondják: prepared to sit it out.

Igen, szerintem is az van benne, hogy már eldöntötték, hogy kivárják a végét, nem arról van szó, hogy most egyelőre várunk, aztán "majd meglátjuk". A "sit it out" is jó.
