Tesla Inc’s TSLA head of artificial intelligence and leader of Autopilot, Andrej Karpathy, Wednesday announced his departure from the company.
On CNBC's "Options Action," Michael Khouw of Optimize Advisors said the volume traded in Tesla’s stock on Thursday outpaced the next five highest trading companies combined.
The options market is implying a move of a little under 9% by the end of next week, when Tesla reports earnings, Khouw mentioned. This is much higher than the average move of 5% over the last eight quarters, he added.

There was a buyer of 3,000 of the August 880/910 call spreads at an average price of $3 per contract, Khouw said. The trader bet $900,000 that Tesla’s stock could rise 27% by August expiration, he added.
