Context
This report documents outright sales (disposals), not purchases, option exercises, or grants. Sales by executives can be routine (diversification, tax planning, etc.); they are factual records of insider liquidity rather than a direct signal of company performance. If you follow insider activity, purchases typically carry more weight as potential positive signals.
