Context
RSUs are grants of future shares (or cash) that become payable when they vest; this is not an open-market purchase or sale. Awards at $0 cost are standard for equity compensation and do not necessarily signal immediate bullish or bearish trading intent. For retail investors, RSU grants are a form of compensation alignment with shareholders but should be considered alongside other insider trades and company fundamentals.
