Context
- The M-code derivative entries at $0 reflect RSU vesting/settlement rather than an option purchase with cash; the subsequent open-market sells are routine tax-withholding transactions (sell-to-cover). Such sell-to-cover sales are common and generally reflect tax mechanics rather than a direct sentiment signal from the insider.
