Context Restricted stock units are a common form of executive compensation designed to align long-term interests with shareholders; they do not involve immediate cash payment or an open-market trade. Because this is an award rather than a purchase or sale, it should be viewed as compensation-related rather than a direct signal of the insider’s short-term market sentiment.
