Context Tax-withholding dispositions are routine when options are exercised or restricted stock units vest: the company withholds shares to cover required taxes. These withholdings reduce reported holdings but are administrative and do not necessarily indicate the insider is bearish or making a market sale. Purchases and voluntary open-market sales typically provide more direct insight into insider sentiment.
