Context

• These were open-market sales, not option exercises, gifts, or awards. Sales by insiders can be for many reasons (diversification, tax, liquidity) and do not necessarily signal company outlook.
• For retail investors, purchases by insiders often carry more obvious bullish signals than routine sales; treat this as a factual disclosure of insider liquidity rather than a directional endorsement.
