2015 Year in Review

As we prepare to shut the door on 2015, SBJ newsroom staff identified the year’s biggest business stories. Filling a white board with ideas, these 10 talkers stood out as having the biggest Ozarks impact.

From the high of record stock prices to a continuing legal saga, and a big hole on golf course grounds to a pair of revitalized buildings - we reported it all.

Let’s open the door to 2016 together.
