CBRE stock dives 12% as Zillow jitters hit real-estate names ahead of earnings

New York, Feb 11, 2026, 13:04 EST — Session in progress

Shares of CBRE Group Inc (NYSE: CBRE) tumbled roughly 12.4% to $149.25 on Wednesday, starting the day near $171 before dipping as low as $147.92. Zillow Group took a bigger hit, dropping 16.6%, and Rocket Companies slid 9.2%. Peers in commercial real estate services also saw steep declines, with Jones Lang LaSalle down about 11% and Cushman & Wakefield falling close to 10%.

This comes just a day ahead of CBRE’s quarterly earnings report, where analysts expect revenue around $11.66 billion and adjusted earnings of $2.68 per share, according to a StockStory preview. The same report noted that CBRE beat estimates in the previous quarter. 1

Bond yields climbed following a surprisingly strong U.S. jobs report, a development that tends to weigh on rate-sensitive real estate stocks. “January’s employment report was a blockbuster with improvement across the board,” said Eric Merlis, co-head of global markets at Citizens. 2

Housing stocks took a hit following Zillow’s forecast for first-quarter adjusted EBITDA between $160 million and $175 million, falling short of expectations, Barron’s reported. Adjusted EBITDA excludes interest, taxes, and non-cash expenses like depreciation and amortization. 3

CBRE came into Wednesday’s trading after hitting a fresh 52-week peak the previous day, soaring to roughly $174.05 on Tuesday, according to MarketBeat. 4

CBRE is a commercial real estate services and investment firm covering advisory, building operations, facilities services, project management, and real estate investments, according to a Reuters company profile. 5

The upcoming earnings report will probably determine if Wednesday’s slump holds. Investors are betting on transaction activity leveling off and believe the company’s outsourcing-focused units can keep chugging along, even if property sales and financing remain spotty.

The risk is clear: if management signals caution on deal flow or margins, or if rising yields further tighten financial conditions, the sell-off could accelerate sharply after hitting new highs. On the flip side, a more optimistic outlook might just as easily push the stock back up.

CBRE plans to publish its fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 earnings around 6:55 a.m. ET on Thursday, followed by a conference call at 8:30 a.m. ET. 6

  • Is Labor Over-Reliant on Big Tech Amid AI Revolution?
    March 28, 2026, 5:02 PM EDT. Australia's Labor government faces scrutiny over its approach to artificial intelligence (AI) regulation and big tech reliance. The rise of AI tools like ChatGPT and Meta AI could transform productivity and job markets, posing both opportunities and risks. Critics, including independent Senator David Pocock, warn Australia must be 'clear eyed' on AI's potential hazards, such as job losses and impacts on creatives' income. Labor recently introduced national expectations for data centres and AI infrastructure to manage growth, energy use, and economic effects. Industry Minister Tim Ayres expressed confidence in the current government priorities amid the complex approval processes. The debate exposes tensions between fostering innovation and guarding against social and economic costs in an AI-driven future.
