  • 3 Promising UK Penny Stocks Over £40M Market Cap to Watch

Despite recent pressures on the UK market, driven by weak trade data from China pushing the FTSE 100 lower, select penny stocks-smaller companies trading at low prices-offer potential for growth. Among those with market capitalizations over £40 million, Foresight Group Holdings, Warpaint London, and ME Group International stand out for strong financial health and solid fundamentals.
