I don't know about 2016 as the price barely increased in 2016. But yeah currently we are in 2017 and ltc is being pumped so hard that it reached it's all time high price at 24$. And i'm sure this is not the end of the price increase the coin is going to be pumped more and we can expect maybe a 50$ price tag by july or maybe a 100$ by end of this year (if it survived).
Litecoin's all time high was $50 back in 2013.
That is easy to reach. But the price relative to the bitcoin is difficult.
