By Deborah Levine
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Treasury prices turned higher again in narrow but volatile trading and the dollar remained lower on Friday after a U.S. consumer sentiment index released by the University of Michigan and Reuters remained at 73.6 in March, matching February's level. The euro (CUR_EURUSD 1.3403, +0.0125, +0.9415%) rose about 1% to buy $1.3405, up from $1.3306 late Thursday, when it hit a new 10-month low. The dollar index (DXY 81.76, -0.36, -0.44%) , which measures the greenback against a trade-weighted basket of six major currencies, declined to 81.653 from 82.037 late Thursday. Yields on 10-year notes (UST10Y 3.87, -0.01, -0.18%) , which move inversely to prices, fell 2 basis points to 3.87%.
