The companies
NMRKNewmark Group, Inc.
Real Estate Services · $11.71 · beta 1.76
Why now
Real Estate Services · market cap $2.9b. Down 41% from 52-week high of $19.84 — deep drawdown territory. Revenue growing +20%, comfortably above the S&P median. 6 sell-side analysts rate this a Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $19.50 (implying +67% upside).
Moat
ROE 11% meets the long-run market sustainable threshold — solid but not differentiated; the durability comes from elsewhere.
Risk
Down 41% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up. Beta 1.76 implies above-market volatility — position-size to the drawdowns this name will produce in a market correction, not to its bull-case return. Net margin 4.1% is thin — operating leverage cuts both ways; input-cost inflation or pricing pressure hits the bottom line first.
CWKCushman & Wakefield Limited
Real Estate Services · $11.39 · beta 1.51
Why now
Real Estate Services · market cap $2.7b. Down 35% from 52-week high of $17.40 — deep drawdown territory. PEG 0.22 — paying under fair value for the growth rate. 11 sell-side analysts publish a mean 1-yr target of $17.73 (implying +56% upside).
Moat
Moat signals from the quantitative card are modest — profitability and capital efficiency are middle-of-pack. The thesis here depends on softer factors (switching costs, brand, distribution, regulatory protection) not captured by the quality-growth screen.
Risk
Down 35% from the 52-week high — the market is pricing in something the screen can't see; verify the bear case before sizing up. Beta 1.51 implies above-market volatility — position-size to the drawdowns this name will produce in a market correction, not to its bull-case return. Trailing P/E 39x sits well above the S&P median (~20x) — multiple compression is a real risk if revenue growth decelerates.

Common questions
Is NMRK or CWK the better stock?
NMRK scores higher: NMRK 83.0, CWK 79.0 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth score, which blends business quality, growth and valuation into one number. A higher score means a stronger business at a more reasonable price — it is not a price target or a recommendation.
How are NMRK and CWK scored?
Each carries the same 0–100 quality-growth score used everywhere on the site, built from three pillars — quality (profitability and returns on capital), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (what you pay for them) — combined as a geometric mean, so a weak pillar cannot be papered over by a strong one.
