The London stock market has recently experienced turbulence, with the FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 indices slipping due to weak trade data from China, highlighting global economic challenges. Amidst these broader market fluctuations, investors often look towards penny stocks as a potential avenue for growth. Although the term "penny stocks" might seem outdated, these smaller or newer companies can still offer significant opportunities when they are underpinned by strong financial health.
