- Derivative explanation: “M” entries are option exercises/conversions. Here, exercised options and RSU settlements supplied shares that were at least partly sold; the transaction pattern is consistent with cashing out exercised/options/vesting rather than a market purchase.
- Investor note: Sales by insiders can be routine (exercise proceeds, tax withholding) and do not by themselves indicate company outlook.
