I understand that Partial Transfer from NEST is not possible unfortunately.

I'm still in the Sharia fund with Nest. It's now up substantially since late July.

yeah, it's just had a few bad weeks. But realistically that'll be because everyone got too excited about the possibilities of AI, which pushed up Nvidia's stock price massively.  What we're seeing now is a cool down from that, so I think we'll see the Sharia fund continue on its normal trajectory soon enough.

This is when high-volatility funds get a little scary. It's hard to trust the process when you're seeing your pot diminish. It's certainly been a test of my intestinal fortitude!

What you have seen is not normal.   It is a bubble forming in technology stocks compared to the wider market.   Whether tech can justify that bubble, only time will tell.

This is when high-volatility funds get a little scary. 

What you have seen in recent times with the fund is nothing to what it is capable of doing in real negative periods.   This is barely a blip relative to the risk being taken.

You’ve switched to a lower risk lower growth fund on a slight dip. Had you stuck with it your fund would be up.

The fund is now getting a Trump boost and I see it increasing more for the next few weeks. Could it crash, yes it could. But right here, right now, your quick switch has cost you!
