Context

• This was a tax-withholding sale associated with RSU vesting (common routine insider transaction) rather than a voluntary market-timing sale. Such automatic withholding sales are standard and do not necessarily indicate management’s view on the stock. Purchases by insiders are generally more informative about sentiment than routine tax-related sales.
