The average investor has far too much of their money sitting in the United States,&#8221; ETF.com&#8217;s Dave Nadig told CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/etf-edge\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ETF Edge<\/a>&#8221; this week.<\/p>\n<p>Nadig, the firm&#8217;s president and director of research, delivered his concerns during a record week on Wall Street.
