Context
Gifts or transfers to a personal trust are common estate-planning moves and do not necessarily signal a change in the insider’s view of the company. Because this was a gift/transfer to a trust where Saintil is trustee and beneficiary, it should not be interpreted as a conventional buy (bullish) or sell (bearish) trade.
