This article lacks any sort of reasoning or rationale to dispel the possibility that this is merely a timing fluke. Tech companies are sensitive to capital availability, even those who are publicly traded. As the fed tightens interest rates, we will see more stock dips in the short term. Additionally more layoffs across the industry were announced this week and Google, Apple, et. al. are a proxy “tech” to a huge number of people.

The biggest issue here is just the perpetuation of reductionist thinking on the part of many stock market blogs and thought leaders.

I suppose it doesn’t really matter what any human thinks about this article. I suspect it’s written to influence high-volume, automated trading systems given the other types of absolute hot garbage there is on that site.
