Context
- RSU grants and trustee transfers are common for directors as compensation and estate/planning arrangements and do not necessarily signal buying or selling sentiment in the market.
- For retail investors, awarded/vested RSUs are compensation-related and differ from open-market purchases (which may be more directly interpreted as insider bullishness).
