Context
- This was not an open-market sale or a purchase; it is a routine tax-withholding event that reduces the net number of shares delivered on RSU vesting (a common employer practice, sometimes called a cashless or net share settlement). Such withholdings generally reflect tax obligations rather than a directional bet on the stock.
