It seems that creditors have started to lower credit lines in anticipation of a massive recession.
CNBC has an article "Card issuers are cutting credit limits without warning" and I can already see the affects.
If the 2008-2012 recession is any indication, credit card companies will continue to automatically lower credit lines that are not in use. For example, I have an Amazon Line of Credit for $10,000. They just lowered it to $1,000 in April. I never really use it, and nothing changed in my credit profile. A gasoline card, which has a $5,000 limit, was lowered to $500. Both companies claimed that I had "sufficient" credit and that it "shouldn't" impact me.
