Context This was a grant/award of fully vested shares (and includes dividend-reinvestment activity year-to-date), which is typically compensation-related and not the same signal as an open-market purchase by an insider. Retail investors should view awards and dividend reinvestment differently from direct purchases or sales when assessing insider sentiment.
