Coty Stock Rose 2.7% on Monday

What was the good news? The cosmetics maker announced that it was buying a majority stake in celebrity Kylie Jenner’s makeup company.

是什么推动了该股上涨？这家化妆品生产商宣布将收购名人凯莉·詹娜(Kylie Jenner)化妆品公司的多数股权。

Coty (COTY) is controlled by JAB, a private German conglomerate, and it has had a rough couple of years. In 2018, it was the worst-performing stock in the s&P 500. Especially because the company had loaded on debt in order to buy more than 40 brands from Procter & Gamble back in 2016.

Coty (COTY)由德国私营企业集团JAB控股，该公司最近两年的经营举步维艰。Coty是2018年标准普尔500指数中表现最差的成分股，最主要的原因是该公司因2016年从宝洁(Procter & Gamble)手中收购了40多个品牌之后背负了沉重的债务。

在新任首席执行官的领导下，2019年上半年Coty的股价上涨了一倍以上。

—but then recently, it took another steep dive after the company said it would start unloading poorly performing brands.

但近日该公司表示将开始剥离表现不佳的品牌，股价因此又经历了一次大跳水。
