Gold, which is seen as a safe-haven asset in times of economic crises, hit its highest since May 9 earlier in the session at $1,877.05 per ounce as red-hot US inflation data lifted Treasury yields and tempered the appeal of safe-haven bullion.

Spot gold was down 0.5% at $1,862.29 per ounce, as of 0205 GMT. US gold futures also eased 0.5% to $1,866.80.

Bullion is often seen as an inflation hedge, but the opportunity cost of holding it is higher when the Fed raises short-term interest rates, as gold yields no interest.

Meanwhile, spot silver dipped 1.1% to $21.63 per ounce.
