Context
Deferred stock units are a form of compensation that typically convert to common shares or cash upon vesting, payout date, or termination of service. Such grants reflect executive/director compensation policy rather than an immediate buy or sell decision in the open market, so they shouldn’t be read as a direct bullish or bearish trading signal.
