This was a routine net share settlement to satisfy tax obligations related to vested RSUs, a common administrative transaction that does not necessarily signal buying or selling intent. For retail investors, purchases or open-market sales by insiders tend to carry more direct interpretive weight than tax-withholding forfeitures.
