On this week's TLDR, what this cut means for investors, savers and anyone trying to make sense of the global economy. And, how a memestocker sent GameStop soaring — and, for a brief moment, looked like he was possibly on course to become a billionaire. Plus, how Abercrombie & Fitch rebranded — and became one of the best performing stocks on the market.
