Context
Withholdings to cover taxes on vested RSUs are routine administrative transactions and generally are not considered a directional insider trade signal like a voluntary open-market sale or purchase. For investors tracking insider activity, purchases or planned sales (e.g., 10b5-1 plans) tend to carry more interpretive weight than tax withholdings.
