The reduction in manufacturing will be off set by electric vehicles, from my research ( heavily invested in Lithium stocks ) will start it's boom in 2018/19 for Australia as car's start coming at cost of 22k. Also Australian population growth rate is projected at 500k a year. Both these should pic up or out pace any slack.
