Tesla shares charge 8% higher on results

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Tesla Motors, Inc. shares rallied 8% to $26.54 in early trading Wednesday after the electric car maker reported a loss a day earlier that wasn’t nearly as bad as Wall Street had expected. The stock is now up 56% from its IPO price last summer. The gains extend last week’s advance that was driven by a $30 million investment in Tesla from Panasonic Corp., which bought shares in a private placement at $21.15 each.
