Context
Sales to cover tax withholding on vested RSUs and transactions executed under a pre-established 10b5-1 plan are common and generally considered routine liquidity events rather than directional bets on the stock. Purchases typically carry more weight as signals of insider confidence; these sales primarily reflect tax obligations tied to vesting.
