NEST Sharia - changes to fund.

Everything has fallen in the last few weeks, nothing to do with Nest or Sharia in particular!

As dunstonh and others spent the first six pages of this thread explaining, the Nest Sharia fund had performed well on the back of a tech bubble.

That bubble looks to be deflating.

tried going onto Nest but can't get any data on the fund - just get a "oops something went wrong" message....

FTSE has a chart:

Looks to have lost the last ~6 months growth? It could fall a long way yet.

It's dropped in line with expectations.

indeed, its actually dropped less than expectation but its only a mild drop so far.  "you ain't seen nothing yet"..... for what its real loss potential is.

Nest is the provider, so nothing to do with them, but Sharia has an impact because it led to investment decisions that gave an abnormally high level of tech exposure.   So, consequently, when the tech bubble deflates a bit (or if it goes to a full blown burst) then it will go down much more than other funds that are more conventionally balanced.

I am in the HSBC Sharia fund in my work pension and it's taking a battering but ...I am sitting tight and keep buying every month so 'hope' it all works out in the longterm assuming this is just noise as part of the bigger picture.Only time will tell!

Now seems to have lost about ~12 months growth, and is back to where it was in spring 2024.
