What things could happen with the btc price when the block halving occurs? will the price go down due to miners cashing out? or will the block chain slow down due to miners shutting off their mining equipment? will the price go up because of less daily bitcoin created? what will likely happen?

Miners would have to sell more as the rewards are less to maintain their operations.

they cannot sell more than they mine
Except they start to save now and don't sell all immediately.
Could be the case for a few of the more profitable mining companies.
