Context
- These sales were by an institutional fund vehicle (ALAC and related funds) managed by IFC. Institutional disposals are often part of portfolio management (rebalancing, liquidity) rather than a direct vote on company prospects. Purchases tend to be more informative about insider confidence; routine sales are common and not necessarily a negative signal.
