Context
- RSU grants are a common form of executive compensation and typically vest over time; they do not necessarily indicate a purchase-driven bullish signal. They become taxable/transferable only as they vest (or per company plan rules), so they differ from open-market purchases or immediate sales in terms of investor interpretation.
