Context
RSU grants are a form of compensation, not an open-market purchase or sale. They typically align incentives with long-term shareholder value but do not indicate immediate buying or selling sentiment. Because these are restricted units that vest over time, economic exposure depends on future vesting and any company or plan approvals.
