By Deborah Levine
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Treasury prices stayed under pressure and the dollar pared a decline on Thursday after a report showed pending U.S. homes sales rose more than anticipated last month. Yields on 10-year notes [s : ust10y], which move inversely to prices, rose 1 basis point to 3.43%. The dollar index (DXY 77.73, -0.17, -0.22%) , which tracks the U.S. unit against a basket of six currencies, traded at 77.765, up from 77.681 earlier and compared to 77.776 in late North American action on Wednesday.
