Context RSUs are a form of equity compensation that become shares only after vesting and (usually) settlement; this grant does not reflect an open-market purchase or sale. Awards like this are common compensation for directors and do not by themselves indicate a buy or sell signal until and unless the shares are retained or disposed of after vesting.
