The Dow Industrials marked two down days since latest round of tariffs against China kicked in. But analyst Art Hogan still remains confident in the market.
"The fact that this market is okay with the fact that we took $200 billion worth of goods from China, put tariffs on those, and are threatening another $267 billion, and we haven't really sold off ー I think that shows a resilient market," Hogan, a chief market strategist for B. Riley FBR, said Tuesday in an interview on Cheddar.
For Hogan, the market has reacted more to the news of tariffs, less so to the actual tariffs themselves. In a [report](https://brileyfbr.bluematrix.com/sellside/EmailDocViewer?encrypt=96a29f78-9d57-478d-bc2c-c536c8515f45&mime=pdf&co=fbr&id=lhatton@brileyfbr.com&source=libraryView) published by B. Riley FBR, Hogan and his colleagues said, "Negative rumors solicit most reaction from market...as trade news becomes stale or static as time passes, the impact is recovered."
But over $200 billion is no joke. And the rate is set to increase from 10 percent to 25 percent at the end of the year ー unless, that is, Trump meets China at the table again.
"We are hoping what we get is some sort of rational thought process that gets us back to the negotiation table. I think that happens around November, around the G20 Summit ー choreographed for the election cycle, choreographed for the midterms," Hogan said.
In Hogan's estimation, the markets can withstand the latest tensions. And he warns against taking any market too seriously, trade dispute or not.
"The bark is worse than the bite."

Tesla reported a surprise increase in sales in the third quarter as the electric car maker likely benefited from a rush by consumers to take advantage of a $7,500 credit before it expired on Sept. 30. The company reported Thursday that sales in the three months through September rose 7% compared to the same period a year ago. The gain follows two quarters of steep declines as people turned off by CEO Elon Musk’s foray into right-wing politics avoided buying his company’s cars and even protested at some dealerships. Sales rose to 497,099 vehicles, compared with 462,890 in the same period last year.
