That's not what the article says. In fact, it says "Apple is the perfect tech company..."
I'd like to hear a definition of "tech company" and doesn't include Apple.

I think Apple is a true tech company. How can you define a tech company? it has got holds on both hardware and software for its ecosystem. Doesn't that make it a tech company?
At this stage, if any company which can create an OS like iOS would be considered tech company leaving aside the hardware part.
Many say the current game of musical chairs is overdue for a pause. My money (not literally) is on Tech stocks taking the biggest hit. But as the article put it, Apple isn't a Tech company -- it's a manufacturer (and superb retailer!) of products that are observably differentiated, as they clearly command higher prices for virtually the same functionality as their competitors.
