Context
This was a routine tax-withholding action (cashless withholding) on a vested award, not an open-market sale. Such withholding reduces the number of shares the insider receives but does not reflect an active decision to sell shares on the market; it is generally not a directional signal of the insider’s view. Purchases or open-market sales are typically more informative about insider sentiment.
