Context Director stock awards are routine compensation and are generally not a direct bullish signal like an open-market purchase. "Deferred" shares are typically held until the director leaves the board (or other plan-specified vesting), limiting immediate liquidity. The dividend reinvestment feature noted in the filing increased the deferred share count modestly.
