Surprisingly, no - moving a stock from one exchange to another is a lot harder than selling on one and buying on another (and slower, and more costly for small quantities), so stocks are surprisingly immobile. Only if you really had to, would you move them. And most stocks have one particular home exchange and there's no reason to trade them anywhere else than the one place that has the highest volume and lowest spreads for that stock.

It is potentially the cheapest way to effectively do a currency exchange. [1] - https://www.finiki.org/wiki/Norbert%27s_gambit https://www.finiki.org/wiki/Norbert%27s_gambit
