Here’s a look at the top local business stories of the year

1. The Market Basket saga made headlines nationwide as a months-long worker walkout and customer boycott, prompted by the firing of chief executive Arthur T. Demoulas, brought the grocery chain to its knees. The family feud ended after "Artie T." was reinstated and his rival cousin Arthur S. Demoulas agreed to sell.

2. The state Gaming Commission finally awarded three coveted licenses, including one to Wynn Resorts for its $1.6 billion resort casino in Everett.

3. Oil prices plunged, sending average gas prices in the Bay State to $1 lower than a year ago and putting cash back in motorists' pockets in time for a boffo holiday retail season.

4. The biotech industry boomed as 17 local companies went public and three were acquired or are in the process of being bought, including Cubist Pharmaceuticals, purchased by Merck for a cool $8.4 billion.

5. The year ended with the massive Sony Pictures hack, as hundreds of companies, including Staples, Home Depot and JPMorgan Chase, had sensitive customer data stolen.
