Context
- Sales to cover tax withholding or executed under a 10b5‑1 plan are common for executives when equity awards vest; they do not on their own indicate the insider’s view of the company.
- For retail investors, purchases by insiders are generally more informative as a positive signal; routine sales (tax withholding, planned 10b5‑1 sales) are standard liquidity or administrative actions.
