It made me wonder if the fight for a share of a smaller market might produce some price cutting or significant product improvements or possibly the smaller industry production volumes might lead to higher costs and prices. Industry volumes went down 31% last year and 40% in 2013. In any industry where I worked these numbers would have been a calamity with significant job losses and reorganisation.
