Context
Restricted stock awards are typically compensation and subject to vesting conditions; they do not reflect an immediate open‑market purchase or sale. Because these shares are time‑based and vest in the future, they are not immediately tradable and are primarily a retention/compensation mechanism rather than a direct bullish or bearish signal.
