basic Q about what stocks international HFs trade

If you're a L/S HF analyst working outside the US (think London/Canada/Australia/Tokyo/Shanghai/Frankfurt), do you generally trade the public equities listed in the stock exchange in your respective country (think london stock exchange/toronto stock exchange/australian stock exchange/etc.) or do you trade ones listed on the NYSE?
