Context

• This was a routine RSU vesting and partial sale: the RSUs vested and converted into shares, some shares were withheld to cover taxes, and a portion was sold in the open market for cash. Such settlements and sales to cover tax withholding are common and are not the same signal as a voluntary purchase of stock. Purchases tend to be a stronger signal of insider bullishness than routine sales tied to compensation events.
