Why it moves the price

A large block of previously unsellable shares becomes tradable, increasing float and supply on a date known well in advance.

What separates a good call from a naive one

The date is public, so it is partly priced in โ€” the drift often begins a week or two early. The size of the unlock relative to existing float is what matters, and whether early backers are sitting on large gains they want to realise.
