Key Takeaway: Newmark (NASDAQ:NMRK) is one of the top stock recommendations for 2026 according to Jade Rahmani of Keefe, Bruyette & Woods. The company is seeing significant market share gains and has "white space" in its business model because it currently has very little international revenue. Newmark has recently opened more than 10 offices internationally and is expected to gain traction in those markets within the next one to two years. Additionally, the firm is growing its management services business. Because this recurring revenue line typically trades at a high multiple, its growth is expected to positively impact Newmark's stock price as the commercial real estate market recovers. Profile
