Happy New Year and top of the decade to you!

We kick off with the top headlines of the week and bring you backhauling into the weekend with a variety of news deliveries. What is up with Y2K20 and cybersecurity? What’s the market outlook from our early-term view? Is it too early to consider consensus views on earnings calls? What are FreightWaves readers talking about? Do you want the good news first, or the bad?
