Context

• Gift transactions are disposals for estate/planning or personal reasons and do not necessarily indicate the insider's view of the company’s prospects.
• Sales by insiders are common and can reflect diversification, liquidity needs, or other personal reasons; they are less informative than purchases in signaling insider confidence.
