Context
A Rule 10b5-1 plan is a prearranged trading plan that allows insiders to sell shares at set times or under predetermined conditions; such sales are often routine (for example, to cover tax withholding on vested awards) and do not necessarily reflect the insider’s view of the company. Sales (S) are generally less informative about insider sentiment than purchases, which can be a stronger bullish signal.
