Context
This was a compensation vesting event (PSUs), not an open-market purchase or voluntary sale. The withheld shares were used to cover tax obligations — a routine, administrative disposition that does not necessarily indicate insider sentiment about the stock. A = award/vesting; F = tax withholding/disposition.
