LONDON: Tesla shares edged up on Thursday in U.S. premarket trade, extending a recovery from this week's drop, but analysts see a bumpy ride ahead as an extreme build-up in derivative positions caps the stock and precludes a full rebound.

The selloff early this week wiped out US$75 billion dollars off the company's market value, exacerbated by the hedges built around massive betting on Tesla options by retail and institutional traders during the stock’s four-fold rise since March. The implied volatility on near-term Tesla options is ranging around 100per cent, luring a lot of speculators into cashing in through spread structures and potentially implying massive buying and selling of the stock in coming days.More than 1 million Tesla call options - contracts that entitle buyers to buy the stock – have traded on average in the past three sessions, which is a more than 30per cent jump over volumes in recent weeks, a London-based trader said.
