Context
RSUs are a form of equity compensation that convert to actual shares if/when vesting conditions are met; the award itself does not represent an immediate buy or sell signal. For retail investors, executive RSU grants are common and typically reflect compensation design rather than a direct statement about near‑term stock expectations.
