Here are the notable stocks with the highest implied volatility. The $Tupperware Brands (TUP.US)$, $AMC Entertainment (AMC.US)$ and $Ebix Inc (EBIX.US)$ have the highest implied volatility of all stocks with a market cap of over 100 million.
$AMC Entertainment (AMC.US)$ saw its stock down 3.73% during the previous trading session.

However, despite the decline in the stock price, the option volume for AMC was at a high of 574.98K.

Conclusion And Risk Management
Option implied volatility is a measure of the market's expectation for how much an asset's price will fluctuate in the future, as implied by the prices of options on that asset.
Options are financial contracts that give the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset at a predetermined price and time. The price of an option is influenced by various factors, including the current price of the underlying asset, the strike price, the time to expiration, and the implied volatility.
Implied volatility represents the level of uncertainty or risk that market participants perceive in the future price movements of the underlying asset. When investors expect greater volatility, they may be more willing to pay a higher price for options to help hedge their risk, which leads to higher implied volatility.
Implied volatility is usually expressed as a percentage and is calculated using an options pricing model, such as the Black-Scholes model. Traders and investors use implied volatility to assess the attractiveness of options prices, to identify potential mispricings, and to manage their risk exposure.
