3 UK Penny Stocks With Market Caps Over £7M To Consider

Published

The UK market has recently faced challenges, with the FTSE 100 index experiencing declines due to weak trade data from China and global economic uncertainties. In such a climate, investors might find value in exploring penny stocks, which despite their vintage name, continue to offer intriguing opportunities. These stocks often represent smaller or newer companies that can provide growth potential at lower price points when backed by strong financial fundamentals.
