Context
This is a routine tax-withholding event that occurs when RSUs/PSUs vest; shares are returned to the company to cover withholding and do not necessarily indicate a view on the stock. For retail investors, purchases by insiders can be more informative about sentiment; tax-withholding surrenders are administrative and common after vesting.
