Gap (NYSE: GPS) experienced its biggest one-day drop in over a year, shedding 9 percent intraday to trade at its lowest level since August. The decline relates to reports that GAP will not pay a special dividend, as some supposed.

While probably true, Jefferies analysts point out that GAP never said previously that it would pay a special dividend. They view the decline as a buying opportunity.
