Covering U.S. Securities in UK?

Hi everyone,

Do any teams that work at UK-based hedge funds exclusively cover any U.S. securities? I mean I'm sure there's a few who do, but I was wondering what the lifestyle / hours would be, since I can imagine the time zone difference affects it. Would you normally come in later / still late? And is this common at the bigger funds or do most teams exclusively focus on EMEA and APAC stocks?
