Context

• Contributions to an exchange fund are a form of disposition and can be used for diversification or tax planning; such transactions do not necessarily signal the insider’s view on the company’s prospects. As with most director sales, this is a routine disclosure of a financial transaction rather than an explicit endorsement or negative signal about Masco’s business.
