Context RSU grants are standard executive compensation and do not represent an immediate purchase or sale of stock. They typically vest over time and only convert to actual shares (and potential taxable events) upon vesting. Such awards are informative about compensation but should not be read as a direct signal of insider buying or selling intent.
