three years of the occurrence of the fraud or one year from the discovery of the fraud

Explanation:

The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 established a statute of limitations on fraudulent practices of three years. The three years start to count from the moment that the fraud occurred or one year from the discovery of the fraud, whichever comes first.
