Gold and silver steadied by the close after CPI shock boosted December hike odds

By 5:34 pm ET, spot gold was $4,032.38 an ounce and silver was $51.54, both flat on the day on our feed after a volatile session. Today’s reports pinned the earlier selloff on hotter-than-expected U.S. CPI and renewed talk of a faster Fed tightening path, which lifted the dollar and Treasury yields.
