Context
A Rule 10b5-1 plan lets insiders prearrange trades and helps avoid claims of trading on material nonpublic information; sales under such plans are typically routine and do not necessarily signal a change in the insider’s view of the company. For retail investors, purchases tend to be stronger signals than sales; sales can reflect diversification, tax planning, or scheduled plan activity rather than a judgment on future company performance.
