Grants to directors are commonly part of regular compensation or retention programs and do not necessarily reflect an immediate personal purchase decision. For retail investors, outright purchases can be a clearer bullish signal; awards mainly indicate alignment of compensation with shareholder value rather than a market-timed bet by the insider.
