These are not normal buys or sells: things like stock received as pay, shares sold automatically to cover taxes, gifts, or turning options into shares. They usually say little.

What does this mean?
Company leaders
The people who run a company or sit on its board, plus anyone who owns more than 10% of it. The law calls them "insiders."
Big shareholder
A person or fund that owns more than 10% of the company.
Pre-planned sale
A sale scheduled months ahead with a written plan, so it says less about what the person thinks today.
Unplanned sale
A sale the person decided on at the time, which can say more.
Our rating
A quick label from simple rules (how big, who sold, how many sold together). It is our opinion, not a fact and not advice.
