Context
RSUs are a form of equity compensation that convert to actual shares only upon vesting; they are common for executive pay and do not indicate an immediate buy/sell decision. Because this is an award (derivative grant) rather than an open-market purchase or sale, it should be viewed as compensation-related rather than a direct market sentiment signal.
