Litecoin price is down 4% in the past 24 hours and 17% in the past month.
At current levels of $89.7, LTC/USD is about 78% from its 2021 bull market peak. Notably too is that the coin peaked at just above $115 in its pre-halving rally, a scenario that opens up a potentially short-term negative flip.
Historically though, prices have rebounded higher post-halving and positive market conditions in next few months could aid that outlook.
Crypto analyst Rekt Capital pointed out this forecast earlier today.

As noted above, the price of Litecoin at the time of halving today was largely the same as at the last halving. However, as Rekt mentions above, LTC has rallied more post-halving than pre-halving and the prediction could still materialise in the next several months.
Litecoin’s value rose to a new all-time high of $410 in May 2021, before the bear market of 2022 saw the cryptocurrency lose most of that value. Prices dropped to lows of $47 in June as crypto contagion impacted markets after the collapse of Terra and Three Arrows Capital.
