Context

• These were sales (not purchases); sales executed under a 10b5‑1 plan are often pre-scheduled and less informative about current insider sentiment. Gifts to charity likewise do not signal market views. For retail investors, purchases by insiders typically attract more attention as potential bullish signals; large, pre-planned sales are frequently routine liquidity events.
