NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Treasury prices fell on Tuesday, pushing yields up, before the Institute of Supply Management's index on manufacturing, which some expect to show an improvement in the sector. Analysts also noted positive data out of Europe and mixed reports on manufacturing in China, with U.S. debt reversing all the gains made last week on worries about the political turmoil in Egypt. "Treasurys were marginally weaker overnight with the mix of data providing signs of modest improvement in the European labor market and a record high U.K. manufacturing" report, said strategists at CRT Capital Group. "Reverse flight-to-quality flows were also a theme." Yields on 10-year notes (UST10Y 3.42, +0.05, +1.45%) , which move inversely to prices, rose 6 basis points to 3.43%.
