Gap (NYSE: GPS) stock soared 17.1% in Thursday's after-hours trading, following the casual-apparel retailer's release of its report for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 (ended Oct. 28). The stock's surge is attributable to earnings crushing Wall Street's expectation and revenue coming in better than analysts had projected.
