Context
This was a cashless withholding to cover taxes on RSU vesting — a standard administrative step that reduces the number of shares delivered to the insider but does not represent a directional bet on the stock. Purchases by insiders tend to carry more informative weight about personal bullishness; tax-withholding disposals are routine and common after equity award vesting.
