Primals, especially water, life and air, are a pretty safe bet. Leg enchants and the materials to make them will see a short-term boost. Blue gems for servers that haven't unlocked the gem vendor should prove profitable; I have no idea what the new gear will do to servers that have epic gems available.

Enchanters themselves can make quite a bit of money during the release of a new season. Season 3 I made several hundred gold in tips alone, essentially between running back and forth from the bank to the auction house.
I made a significant portion of the money required for my second epic flying mount by buying every single LPS and Void Crystal on the AH shortly after season 3 hit and then reposting them all at 1.5-3 times the prices I paid for them. Admittedly, it was an evil way of making money, but it worked well - I made about 2400g with <1000 gold invested.

"Cornering the market" is not generally advisable, but if you know there will be a high demand, it may be worth the risk.
