After considerable research and contemplation, I have determined the answer to the question posed by the OP will be (is already starting to be, actually) ...

- Apartments
- Autos
- Oil (plus my link in the post immediately above, which is related to oil)
- Some tech thrown in for good measure, especially anything related to mobile communications and cloud computing
- Any industry supplying goods to the above four

Should anyone desire more information, I'd be happy to provide it. Otherwise, thank you, and have a nice day. :)
Stuff for doomers to contemplate:

You must not have read Kunstler's post this Monday.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'W')e tell ourselves we're in an economic recovery, meaning we expect to return to a prior economic state, namely, a turbo-charged "consumer" economy fueled by easy credit and cheap energy. Fuggeddabowdit. That part of our history is over. We've entered a contraction that will seem permanent until we reach an economic re-set point that comports with what the planet can actually provide for us. That re-set point is lower than we would like to imagine. Our reality-based assignment is the intelligent management of contraction. We don't want this assignment. We'd prefer to think that things are still going in the other direction, the direction of more, more, more. But they're not. Whether we like it or not, they're going in the direction of less, less, less. Granted, this is not an easy thing to contend with, but it is the hand that circumstance has dealt us. Nobody else is to blame for it.

The rest of it pretty much addresses your points.
The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('OilFinder2', '-') Oil
Oil prices and hence revenues and profits (but not production) have quadrupled in a few short years ("short" meaning "deficient or lacking").

I guess that qualifies as a "boom".
