Order Re Motions to Dismiss the First Amended Complaints

I. Background

Security Savings Bank (“SSB,”) a federally insured depository institution, failed on February 27, 2009. Plaintiff Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) was appointed receiver for Security Savings Bank. The FDIC has the authority to pursue any claims held by SSB. 12 U.S.C. § 1821(d)(2)(A). The FDIC files these lawsuits asserting securities law claims arising from SSB’s purchase of six residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS” or “certificates”).

The certificates that SSB purchased were created through a process known as “securitization.” See, e.g., Bank Hapoalim B.M. v. Bank of Am. Corp., 12-CV-4316, 2012 WL 6814194, at *1 (C.D.Cal. Dec. 21, 2012). In both cases, non-defendant Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. extended home loans to borrowers. The loans were pooled, sold to trusts, and backed certificates issued by trusts. Those certificates entitled the holders to receive cash flows from the pool of mortgage loans. The certificates were sold to underwriters, who sold them to SSB. According to the FDIC, the documents used to create and market the securities (called the “Offering Documents,”) included materially untrue or misleading statements.

On February 24, 2012, the FDIC filed two separate lawsuits against the Defendants in Nevada state court alleging those misrepresentations. The Amended Complaint in the 12-CV-6690 matter (“6690 Complaint”) is brought against defendants Banc of America Securities LLC (“Banc of America Securities”), Barclays Capital Inc. (“Barclays,”) and Morgan Stanley & Company LLC f/k/a Morgan Stanley & Company, Inc. (collectively, the “6690 Defendants”) for their role in selling or underwriting five certificates1 sold to SSB. In a second suit, the FDIC sues Country*1223wide Securities Corporation, CWALT, Inc., Countrywide Financial Corporation and Bank of America Corporation (“6692 Defendants”) for selling, underwriting and issuing one certificate2 to SSB, and controlling and succeeding to the liabilities of the primary actors (the Amended Complaint in the 12-CV-6692 action is called the “6692 Complaint”).

After the Defendants removed these cases and they were transferred to this Court, the FDIC filed these Amended Complaints. The complaints allege that the Offering Documents included false representations of the ratio of the value of the loans to the underlying value of the homes, the appraisal value of the homes, the rate of occupancy by the owners of the properties, the underwriting standards used to originate the home loans and the credit ratings of the certificates. Despite the fact that the FDIC filed different lawsuits, the factual allegations and claims of misrepresentation are identical in each suit. The FDIC argues that the 6690 Defendants are liable for those false statements under Section 11 of the federal Securities Act of 1933, and that Banc of America Securities LLC and Barclays are liable under the Nevada Securities Act and Sections 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act for two of the certificates.3 The FDIC claims that Countrywide Securities Corporation and CWALT, Inc. are liable for false statements for the certificate in the 6692 Complaint under Section 11, that Countrywide Financial Corporation is liable as a controlling person under Section 15, and that Bank of America Corporation is liable as successor of these entities.

Both the 6690 and 6692 Defendants move to dismiss on the grounds that the Complaints are time-barred.4 According to the Defendants, the statute of limitations on the federal claims had already run as of February 27, 2009, when the FDIC became receiver of SSB. They urge that there is no reason to extend the statute of limitations. Even if any federal claims were live on February 27, 2009, Defendants argue that the statute of repose now bars the FDIC’s claim. The 6690 Defendants also argue that the statute of limitations for the Nevada Securities Act expired by February 27, 2009, and that Nevada, the transferor court, does not have personal jurisdiction over Barclays.

II. All but One of the Federal Securities Claims were Untimely on February 27, 2009

The statute of limitations for federal claims under the Securities Act of 1933 is “one year after the discovery of the untrue statement or the omission, or after such discovery should have been made by the exercise of reasonable diligence,” and “[i]n no event shall any such action be brought to enforce a liability created under section [11] ... more than three years after the security was bona fide offered to the public, or under section [12(a)(2) ] more than three years after the sale.” 15 U.S.C. § 77m (“Section 13”). The one-year statute of limitations on any live claims on February 27, 2009 was extended by at least three years. 12 U.S.C. § 1821(d)(14) (“Section 1821”) (“the applicable statute of limitations with regard to any action brought by the Corporation as conservator *1224or receiver shall be ... the longer of the 3-year period beginning on the date the claims accrues,” which in this case is “the date of the appointment of the Corporation as conservator or receiver”).

The Defendants argue, though, that the three-year statute of repose is not extended by Section 1821, which would mean that the Securities Act claims are untimely for any security purchased before February 24, 2009. The relevant question under Ninth Circuit precedent is whether the term “statute of limitations” in Section 1821 was understood to include the “statute of repose” when the extender statute was passed. McDonald v. Sun Oil Co., 548 F.3d 774, 781 (9th Cir. 2008). The extender statute was enacted in 1989. See Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989, Pub.L. 101-73, § 212, 103 Stat. 183 (“CONSERVA-TORSHIP AND RECEIVERSHIP POWERS OF THE CORPORATION.”) The Ninth Circuit determined that “[t]he term ‘statute of limitations’ was ambiguous regarding whether it included statutes of repose ... in 1986.” McDonald, 548 F.3d at 781. This Court has concluded that because Congress and numerous federal judges used the word “limitation” interchangeably to refer to both statutes of limitations and repose between 1986 and 2008, the term “statute of limitations” did not exclude periods of repose in 2008. Fed. Hous. Fin. Agency v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., 900 F.Supp.2d 1055, 1066 (C.D.Cal. 2012). That means the term did not exclude periods of repose in 1989. Ambiguous statutes of limitations must be interpreted in “a light most favorable to the government.” F.D.I.C. v. Former Officers and Dirs. of Metro. Bank, 884 F.2d 1304, 1309 (9th Cir. 1989). Therefore, the extender statute of Section 1821 extends both statutes of limitations and repose by at least three years from the date of appointment of the FDIC as receiver. Any claims still viable on February 27, 2009 could be brought by the FDIC until February 27, 2012.

Three of the FDIC’s claims, though, were clearly not live on February 27, 2009. Those claims were brought for violations of Section 11 and are based on three securities issued pursuant to shelf registration statements filed before December 1, 2005. See 6692 Complaint ¶ 27, Schedule Item 27(g) (CWALT 2005-83CB B-2 was “issued pursuant or traceable to a registration statement filed by CWALT, Inc. with the SEC on form S-3 on July 25, 2005.”); 6690 Complaint ¶25, Schedule 4 Item 27(h) (CWALT 2005-74T1 B-2 was “issued pursuant or traceable to a registration statement filed by CWALT, Inc. with the SEC on form S-3 on July 25, 2005.”); 6690 Complaint ¶ 25, Schedule 5 Item 27(h) (CWALT 2005-19CB B-2 was “issued pursuant or traceable to a registration statement filed by CWALT, Inc. with the SEC on form S-3 on April 21, 2005.”). A mortgage-backed security was bona fide offered to the public, for purposes of the statute of repose, on the effective date of the registration statement for registration statements filed before December 1, 2005. Me. State Ret. Sys. v. Countrywide Fin. Corp. (“Me. State I,”) 722 F.Supp.2d 1157, 1165 n. 8 (C.D.Cal. 2010). The three-year repose period for these securities ended by July 25, 2008 at the latest. Section 11 claims based on CWALT 2005-83CB B-2, CWALT 2005-74T1 B-2 and CWALT 2005-19CB B-2 were not live on February 27, 2009 when the FDIC became receiver. Because Section 1821 does not revive time-barred claims, the FDIC could not bring those claims unless the statute of limitations was tolled on another ground.

The 6690 Defendants argue that the legal claims on the remaining securities, CWALT 2006-29T1 B-l, CWALT *12252006-26CB B-2 and CWALT 2006-21CB B-2, are also time-barred, because the one-year statute of limitation ended before February 27, 2009. The statute of limitations in Section 13 commences “when the plaintiff did or should have actually discovered that the defendant made an ‘untrue statement or omission.’ ” Fed. Deposit Ins. Corp. as Receiver for Strategic Capital Bank v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., 12-CV-4354, 2012 WL 5900973, at *3 (C.D.Cal. Nov. 21, 2012) (citing Merck & Co., Inc. v. Reynolds, 559 U.S. 633, 130 S.Ct. 1784, 176 L.Ed.2d 582 (2010)). A plaintiff did or should have actually discovered misstatements when a “ ‘reasonably diligent plaintiff would have sufficient information about that fact to adequately plead it in a complaint ... with sufficient detail and particularity to survive a 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss.’ ” Id. (citing City of Pontiac Gen. Emps.’ Ret. Sys. v. MBIA, Inc., 637 F.3d 169, 175 (2d Cir. 2011)).

The Section 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 claims were only live on February 27, 2009 if SSB would not have been able, by February 27, 2008, to plead in a complaint that the Offering Documents included misstatements.5 The court “can take judicial notice of publications introduced to indicate what was in the public realm at the time that would ... show public information that could have enabled [plaintiff] to state a claim under the Securities Act.” Strategic Capital Bank, 2012 WL 5900973, at *3 (citations omitted). This Court has focused on news and opinion articles and court filings and decisions that showed that the originators of the securities had abandoned their underwriting standards and inflated appraisal values, and that such information was sufficient to offer a well-pled complaint on the relevant date. Id. at **3-6. The Defendants cite legal complaints and news articles they argue were sufficient for a reasonable investor to have discovered the misstatements the FDIC now complains of by February 27, 2008.

The Court has previously ruled that reasonable investors had sufficient information to plead violations of federal securities laws by May 22, 2008, Id. The Court has also found that the “inquiry notice” standard, which accrues when “a reasonable investor would have noticed something was amiss,” was triggered by February 14, 2008. Mass. Mut. Life Ins. Co. v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., No. 11-CV-10414, 2012 WL 1322884, at *3 (C.D.Cal. Apr. 16, 2012) (citations omitted). The Court has never explicitly ruled as a matter of law that the statute of limitations accrues under the Merck discovery standard by February 27, 2008.

The Court refuses to do so. This Court has recognized that “a reasonable investor would have been aware of problems with underwriting at Countrywide by early 2008,” from the derivative and numerous securities lawsuits filed by investors, as well as the state court mortgage-backed securities complaint in Luther v. Countrywide Home Loans Servicing LP, No. BC380698 (Cal.Super.Ct. Nov. 14, 2007) (“Luther Complaint”) (attached here as Exhibit 2 to the Request for Judicial Notice in Supp. of Defs.’ Mot. to Dismiss Am. Compl. (“6690 RJN,”) 12-CV-6690, ECF No. 98). Stichting Pensioenfonds ABP v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., 802 F.Supp.2d 1125, 1136-1137 (C.D.Cal. 2011). However, critical information was revealed to inves*1226tors between- February 27 and May 22 in 2008.

As a general rule, “paragraphs in a complaint that are either based on, or rely on, complaints in other actions that have been dismissed, settled, or otherwise not resolved, are, as a matter of law, immaterial within the meaning of Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(f).” RSM Prod. Corp. v. Fridman, 643 F.Supp.2d 382, 403 (S.D.N.Y. 2009); Me. State Ret. Sys. v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., (“Me. State III"), 10-CV-00302, 2011 WL 4389689, at *20 (C.D.Cal. May 5, 2011) (striking paragraphs copied from other complaints when plaintiffs “have not reasonably investigated the allegations”).6 On February 27, 2008, none of the filed complaints had been tested or resolved by any court. This Court ruled that the derivative complaint met the Rule 12(b)(6) standard on May 14, 2008. In re Countrywide Fin. Corp. Derivative Litig., 554 F.Supp.2d 1044 (C.D.Cal. 2008). Before May 14, the Court cannot rule as a matter of law that SSB should have discovered that the information in the other complaints was true, which is necessary before filing a complaint. Me. State III, 2011 WL 4389689, at *20.

The Court realizes that it has held that before February 27, 2008, reasonable investors were on notice or aware that something was amiss at Countrywide. Mass. Mut., 2012 WL 1322884. That notice may have led to an investigation which would have revealed the underwriting problems at Countrywide and supported a well-pled complaint that the Offering Documents contained misstatements. This Court later did hold that both the derivative and securities complaints met the Rule 12(b)(6) standard, and properly alleged that Countrywide had abandoned its underwriting standards and inflated appraisals, the essence of this claim. In re Countrywide Fin. Corp. Derivative Litig., 554 F.Supp.2d at 1058, 1060; In re Countrywide Fin. Corp. Sec. Litig., 588 F.Supp.2d 1132, 1145 (C.D.Cal. 2008). However, that is not the legal standard for “discovery” in this case. That standard is only met when a “plaintiff has uncovered — or a reasonably diligent plaintiff would have uncovered — enough information about the defendant’s” conduct to satisfy the Rule 12(b)(6) pleading standard. City of Pontiac Gen. Emps.’ Ret. Sys., 637 F.3d at 175.7 The Court cannot hold, given the judicially noticeable materials, that a reasonably diligent investor in mortgage-backed securities could have pled a sufficient complaint as of February 27, 2008.

The Court cannot rule as a matter of law that the statute of limitations had commenced for a reasonable investor on Feb*1227ruary 27, 2008, but the FDIC includes factual information that distinguishes some of the securities SSB purchased from those of an average reasonable investor. The Court must interpret the complaint in favor of the plaintiff, but “a plaintiff can ... plead himself out of a claim by including unnecessary details contrary to his claim.” Sprewell v. Golden State Warriors, 266 F.3d 979, 988 (9th Cir. 2001). The 6690 Complaint states that two of the securities SSB purchased8 were downgraded below investment grade by the credit rating agency Fitch on December 13, 2007, more than one year before the FDIC became receiver of SSB. 6690 Complaint ¶25, Schedule 1 Item 25(f), Schedule 2 Item 25(f). This Court has rejected the proposition that it is appropriate to delay the commencement of the limitations period until after the certificates were downgraded by the rating agencies below investment levels. Strategic Capital Bank, 2012 WL 5900973, at *7. The Court has never ruled on the opposite question, whether the statute of limitations begins to run once the certificates were downgraded by the credit rating agencies.

In this case,' the date the federal claims accrued for CWALT 2006-29T1 B-1 and CWALT 2006-26CB B-2 occurred before February 27, 2008, because those certificates were downgraded below investment level on December 13, 2007. Plaintiffs like SSB had sufficient information from the filings of the Luther, securities and derivative complaints, the media sources about the problems in the mortgage origination market and Countrywide and the decline in the credit ratings to offer a well-pled complaint that the Offering Documents for those securities contained misstatements. Woori Bank v. Merrill Lynch, 923 F.Supp.2d 491, 496, No. 12 Civ. 3993(VM), 2013 WL 449912, at *4 (S.D.N.Y. Feb. 6, 2013) (a decline in credit ratings, along with media and other information, “began to expose the allegedly ‘corrupt system’ ” of defendants for purposes of the statute of limitation, quoting the plaintiffs complaint); In re Morgan Stanley Mortg. Pass-Through Certificates Litig., Master File No. 09 Civ. 2137(LTS)(MHD), 2010 WL 3239430 (S.D.N.Y. Aug. 17, 2010) (applying inquiry notice to hold that a “body of information” including ratings downgrades and the filing of similar lawsuits “makes it plain that inquiry notice arose well before May 2008.”); cf. In re Bear Stearns Mortg. Pass-Through Certificates Litig., 851 F.Supp.2d. 746, 764-65 (S.D.N.Y. 2012) (“absent a decline in the Certificates” ratings ... it is difficult to see how a plaintiff could have plausibly pled that the epidemic of indiscretions in the MBS industry had infected his or her Certificates); Fed. Hous. Fin. Agency v. UBS Ams., 858 F.Supp.2d 306, 321 (S.D.N.Y. 2012) (“The downgrade of the securities’ credit ratings ... are crucial to [plaintiffs claim], since they are the only facts that connect the originators’ general practices to particular securities that [the plaintiff] bought from defendants.”); Plumbers’ Union Local No. 12 Pension Fund v. Nomura Asset Acceptance Corp., 632 F.3d 762, 773-74 (1st Cir. 2011) (supporting allegations behind a *1228well-pled complaint include a “sharp drop in the credit ratings”). In another matter in this MDL, the FDIC specifically argued “that it is at least a question of fact whether the statute of limitations can begin to run on claims about a mortgage-backed security that still holds an investment grade rating.” Mem. in Opp. to Defs.’ Mot. to Dismiss Am. Compl. 19, Fed. Deposit Ins. Corp. as Receiver for Strategic Capital Bank v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., 12-CV-4354, ECF No. 49 (Sept. 21, 2012).

In Strategic Capital Bank, this Court warned of a parade of horribles that would result if courts entirely delegated the determination of accrual dates to the credit rating agencies. 2012 WL 5900973, at *7. Those concerns are not relevant here. The Court rules that when combined with the type of information available here about an investment, a claim accrues soon after the downgrade of a security below investment levels. Before that date, investors must act reasonably to determine whether the offering documents related to their certificates contained misstatements. As numerous courts have recognized, credit rating downgrades give specific information about the documents behind a security. Reasonable investors, armed with information about downgrades, media sources of problems in underwriting, and other lawsuits, could craft a particularly well-pled complaint that states the offering documents contained misrepresentations, because they have both general information about problems with the originator of their loans and specific information about the securities they purchased.

The Section 13 statute of limitations had expired before February 27, 2009, when the FDIC became receiver. The Section 11 and 12(a)(2) claims on those securities are time-barred unless the statute of limitations was tolled on another ground.

The Section 11 claims based on each security; except CWALT 2006-21CB B-2, are time-barred, as are both 12(a)(2) claims, because of the statutes of repose and limitations of Section 13. On February 27, 2009, Section 11 claims for CWALT 2006-21CB B-2 were still timely. The registration statement for that certificate was filed with the SEC on March 6, 2006. 6690 Complaint ¶ 25, Schedule 3 Item 27(h). The Court cannot hold as a matter of law that a reasonable investor had enough information to file an adequate complaint under Rule 12(b)(6) alleging misstatements in that certificate’s Offering Documents before February 27, 2008. The three-year statute of repose for that certificate commenced, at the earliest, on March 6, 2006, and the one-year statute of limitations began after February 27, 2008. Section 11 claims based on CWALT 2006-21CB B-2 were therefore timely on February 27, 2009. The FDIC had at least three years from that date to bring its claims. 12 U.S.C. § 1821(d)(14). Therefore, the Section 11 claim was timely when filed on February 24, 2012.

Claims based on the other certificates in this case, CWALT 2006-29T1 B-l, CWALT 2006-26CB B-2, CWALT 2005-74T1 B-2, CWALT 2005-19CB B-2 and CWALT 2005-83CB B-2, were time-barred on February 27, 2009, and are time-barred now unless the statutes of limitations and repose were extended for some other reason.

III. There is no Basis to Toll the Statute of Limitations for the Federal Securities Claims

Both Complaints assert that the claims are timely for another reason, based upon a class action complaint filed in California state court on November 14, 2007. 6690 Complaint ¶¶ 108-109; 6692 Complaint ¶¶ 149-150 (both citing to the filing of the Luther Complaint). The FDIC argues *1229that the statute of limitations and repose were “tolled” by the filing of Luther. See Am. Pipe & Constr. Co. v. Utah, 414 U.S. 538, 544, 94 S.Ct. 756, 38 L.Ed.2d 713 (1974) (“The commencement of a class action suspends the applicable statute of limitations as to all asserted members of the class who would have been parties had the suit been permitted to continue as a class action.”). The Luther Complaint was brought on behalf of “all persons or entities” that purchased CWALT certificates “pursuant and/or traceable to false and misleading registration statements issued by CWALT between January 2005 and June 2007.” Luther Complaint ¶ 1. Therefore, as an asserted member of the class, the filing of Luther suspends the Section 13 statute of limitations as to their claims.

The Court rejects this argument. SSB did not purchase certificates in the same tranche or even the same offering as David H. Luther, the named plaintiff in the earlier class action. 6690 RJN Ex. 8 (Certification of Named Plaintiff Pursuant to Federal Securities Laws filed in Maine State Ret. Sys. v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., 10-CV-00302 (C.D.Cal.)); 6690 RJN Ex. 9 (Second Am. Class Action Compl. in Maine State). “American Pipe tolling applies only to Countrywide MBS for which the named plaintiffs in the prior putative class actions had standing to sue, i.e., those tranches that the Luther named plaintiffs had actually purchased.” Strategic Capital Bank, 2012 WL 5900973, at *8. Therefore, American Pipe is inapplicable, and the claims remain time-barred.

The Court will not reconsider its prior orders on the relation of tolling to standing or the definition of class standing. When a class action plaintiff lacks standing with respect to certain claims, jurisdiction does not attach'for those claims, meaning that federal courts have no power to extend the statutorily defined limitation periods. Strategic Capital Bank, 2012 WL 5900973, at *9; Palmer v. Stassinos, 236 F.R.D. 460, 465 n. 6 (N.D.Cal. 2006).

The Court again rejects the reasoning of the Second Circuit’s recent decision on class standing. NECA-IBEW Health & Welfare Fund v. Goldman Sachs & Co., 693 F.3d 145 (2d Cir. 2012). That decision is inconsistent with Supreme Court precedent. DaimlerChrysler Corp. v. Cuno, 547 U.S. 332, 352-53, 126 S.Ct. 1854, 164 L.Ed.2d 589 (2006) (“[A] plaintiff must demonstrate standing for each claim he seeks to press.”). NECA-IBEW is inconsistent with Ninth Circuit precedent. LaDuke v. Nelson, 762 F.2d 1318, 1325 (9th Cir. 1985) (“certification is not sufficient in itself to bestow standing on individuals or a class who lacked the requisite personal stake at the outset.”); see also Lierboe v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., 350 F.3d 1018, 1022 (9th Cir. 2003) (“if [named plaintiff] has no ... claim, she cannot represent others who may have such a claim”). The decision is inconsistent with the prior rulings9 of every federal court to consider similar questions in the RMBS context, including the First Circuit Court of Appeal and numerous district courts, both in and outside the Second Circuit. Those courts extend standing only to the offerings or tranches purchased by the named plaintiff. Nomura, 632 F.3d at 770 (“Although Nomura Asset is a common defendant with respect to all eight of the trusts, claims against it as well fail so far as they are based on the six trusts whose certificates were purchased by no named plaintiff”); *1230In re Wash. Mut. Mortg.-Baclced Sec. Litig., 276 F.R.D. 658, 663 (W.D.Wash. 2011); Emps.’ Ret. Sys. of the Gov’t. of the Virgin Islands v. J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., 804 F.Supp.2d 141, 150 (S.D.N.Y. 2011) (“courts have almost unanimously found that claims under Section 11 or Section 12 require plaintiff to haye purchased in each of the challenged offerings.”); In re Wells Fargo Mortg.-Backed Certificates Litig., 712 F.Supp.2d 958, 963-65 (N.D.Cal. 2010); Strategic Capital Bank, 2012 WL 5900973, at *12 (citing a, prior filing collecting more cases). A. district court in the Second Circuit recently limited class standing, in a related legal claim, to “the five Trusts in which [Plaintiff] purchased certificates,” because “each Trust has a unique loan composition (and is administered under a unique [even if similar] PSA.)” Policemen’s Annuity and Benefit Fund of City of Chicago v. Bank of Am., N.A., 907 F.Supp.2d 536, 547 (S.D.N.Y. 2012). Finally, the policy implications of the Second Circuit’s rule remain worrisome. It would enable plaintiffs to expand a small securities purchase into an enormous and unwieldy class action that under American Pipe, would toll the statute of limitations as to all securities with any common mortgage originator, even if the originator created only a small portion of the loans at issue. For these reasons, the Court again rejects the reasoning of NECA-IBEW.10

The Court also takes this opportunity to offer- additional thoughts about its alternative ruling in Strategic Capital Bank. The Court thére held that a class action filed in state court does not toll the statute of limitations for subsequent individual federal actions even when both are based on the same federal substantive law. 2012 WL 5900973, at *12. First, another important precedent supports that conclusion. Second, the rule is particularly appropriate with respect to class actions based on the Securities Act, and conforms closely with the purposes of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”). Third, court decisions rejecting “cross, jurisdictional tolling” do so regardless of whether the initial class action was based upon the same substantive law as the subsequent individual action. These three grounds provide further support for the proposition that American Pipe tolling only extends statutes of limitation when the class action was filed in federal court.

The alternative holding of Strategic Capital Bank follows directly from a decision by the Seventh Circuit. See Walters v. Edgar, 163 F.3d 430, 432 (7th Cir. 1998). In that case, Judge Posner held that when “plaintiffs never had standing to bring this suit ... federal jurisdiction never attached.” Id. District courts, including this one, have cited Walters for the proposition that' a class action only tolls the statute of limitation for a claim when the named plaintiff had Article III standing with respect to that claim. Strategic Capital Bank, 2012 WL 5900973, at *9; Stassinos, 236 F.R.D. at 465. Judge Posner’s reasoning, though, should not be limited to cases where plaintiffs did not have standing, because Article III standing is just one part of the jurisdictional inquiry. Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(1); In re Century Aluminum Co. Secs. Litig., 704 F.3d 1119, 1123 (9th Cir. 2013) (“Dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction would have been appropriate if plaintiffs had not adequately alleged Article III standing.”). Walters applies whenever federal jurisdiction does not at*1231tach to the class action, including the situation where the case was filed and remains in state court pending resolution of a jurisdictional dispute.11

The Luther Complaint remained in state court until June 12, 2012, almost five years after filing. There was no basis to remove the case until May 14, 2012. Amended Order Re: Plaintiffs’ Motion to Remand, Luther v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., 12-CV-5125, ECF No. 74 (C.D.Cal. Sept. 4, 2012).12 Before that date, federal jurisdiction did not attach to the class action. Without federal jurisdiction, “it would be beyond the constitutional power of a federal court to toll a period of limitations based on a claim” because the case was not before the federal court. Stassinos, 236 F.R.D. at 465 n. 6.

Second, the fact that Luther was filed under the Securities Act strengthens this conclusion. The PSLRA creates additional requirements for class actions filed in federal court, including the provision of certain information by plaintiffs. Those requirements do not apply in state court. As a result, defendants in a state court class action lack some of the “essential information” necessary to give them proper notice, and American Pipe cannot apply. 414 U.S. at 555, 94 S.Ct. 756. Extending American Pipe tolling to state court class actions is also inconsistent with Congress’ stated purposes in passing the PSLRA.

The PSLRA was passed in 1995 to eliminate “abusive practices in securities litigation.” Senate Report No. 104-98, 104th Congress, reprinted in 1995 U.S.C.C.A.N. 679, 689 (abusive practices included “the use of professional plaintiffs and the race to the courthouse to be the first to file the complaint,” and noting that many of the reforms in the PSLRA were designed to “deter professional plaintiffs”). One subsection of the PSLRA required any plaintiff “seeking to serve as a representative party on behalf of a class” to provide a “sworn certification” that, in part, “sets forth all of the transactions of the plaintiff in the security that is the subject of the complaint during the class period specified in the complaint.” 15 U.S.C. § 77z-l(a)(2)(A)(iv). Congress required this certification “to further deter professional plaintiffs” from filing abusive litigation. Senate Report No. 104-98, 1995 U.S.C.C.A.N. at 689; Greebel v. FTP Software, Inc., 939 F.Supp. 57, 58 (D.Mass. 1996) (Congress attempted to reduce “frivolous suits on behalf of only nominally interested plaintiffs in the hope of obtaining a quick settlement.”).

The certification is a critical part of securities class actions in federal court. “The failure of a named plaintiff to file a certification with the complaint ... [is] fatal to the maintenance of the putative class action.” In re USEC Secs. Litig., 168 F.Supp.2d 560, 566 (D.Md. 2001).13 Further, “a plaintiff lacks standing under both Article III of the U.S. Constitution and under Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the 1933 Act to represent the interests of in*1232vestors in MBS offerings in which the plaintiffs did not themselves buy.” Me. State Ret. Sys. v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., 722 F.Supp.2d 1157, 1163 (C.D.Cal. 2010). In most cases, the only way to determine which securities the named plaintiff purchased is through the filing of the certification with the plaintiffs complaint. See, e.g., 6690 RJN Ex. 8 (Certification of Named Plaintiff Pursuant to Federal Securities Laws filed in Maine State Ret. Sys. v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., 10-CV-00302 (C.D.Cal.)); Decl. of David A. Rosenfeld in Support of Mot. to Appoint Counsel, Ex. A, ECF No. 5, NECA-IBEW Health & Welfare Fund v. Goldman Sachs & Co., 1:08-CV-10783-MGC (S.D.N.Y. Feb. 9, 2009) (“Certification of Named Plaintiff Pursuant to Federal Securities Laws”).14 Finally, statements in a certification are a “judicial admission.” Grimes v. Navigant, 185 F.Supp.2d 906, 914 (N.D.Ill. 2002). Judicial admissions can determine the “scope of a plaintiffs asserted class for tolling purposes.” Smith v. Pennington, 352 F.3d 884, 893 (4th Cir. 2003) (“We are not, however, confined to examine only the complaint in determining the scope, of the class [plaintiff] sought to certify. The scope of a plaintiffs asserted class for tolling purposes is that class for which there was fair notice as to ... the number and generic identities of the potential plaintiffs that might participate in the judgment if the plaintiffs desired class was, in fact, certified.”) (citations omitted).15

Because failure to provide the certification is fatal to a plaintiffs claim, the certification informs the defendants of the named plaintiffs standing, and statements in the certification are judicial admissions which may determine the scope of plaintiffs class definition, the Court considers the certification “essential information.” If the initial class action fails to notify the defendants of “essential information necessary to determine both the subject matter and size of the prospective litigation” then American Pipe tolling does not apply. In re Direxion Shares ETF Trust, 279 F.R.D. 221, 237 (S.D.N.Y. 2012) (discussing “American Pipe’s requirement that defendants be apprised ‘of the essential information’ ” before the prior class action has the power to toll the statute of limitations for later individual claims); Crown, Cork & Seal Co., Inc. v. Parker, 462 U.S. 345, 354-55, 103 S.Ct. 2392, 76 L.Ed.2d 628 (1983) (Powell, J., concurring) (“When thus notified [of the essential information], the defendant normally is not prejudiced by tolling of the statute of limitations.”).

There is no obligation for the named plaintiff in a state court class action to certify the securities transactions that are the subject of the litigation.16 15 U.S.C. § 77z-l(a)(l) (“The provisions of this subsection shall apply to each private action arising under this subchapter that is brought as a plaintiff class action pursuant to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.”). A class action in state court, filed without *1233the certification,17 does not give defendants the “essential information to determine both the subject matter and size of the prospective litigation,” and therefore cannot trigger American Pipe tolling. 414 U.S. at 555-56, 94 S.Ct. 756.

The Congressional purposes as expressed in the PSLRA and the Federal Rules, are best served by refusing to extend American Pipe tolling to state court actions. The PSLRA was designed to reduce abusive filings. Senate Report No. 104-98, 104th Congress, reprinted in 1995 U.S.C.C.A.N. at 689. Filings in state court are not subject to any of the reforms in that legislation, and so are more likely to permit such abuse. These class actions also do not need to meet the basic requirements of Rule 23 of the Federal Rules. Strategic Capital Bank, 2012 WL 5900973, at *13. Extending American Pipe tolling only to federal claims would incentivize the filing of securities class actions in the federal courts, which can then use the PSLRA and Rule 23 to deal fairly and efficiently with these claims. Reducing such filings was Congress’ purpose in passing the PSLRA. See also Merrill Lynch v. Dabit, 547 U.S. 71, 82, 126 S.Ct. 1503, 164 L.Ed.2d 179 (2006) (describing the Securities Litigation Uniform Standards Act, a federal law designed to force securities claims to be filed in federal courts, seeking to “stem this shift from Federal to State courts” and “prevent certain State private securities class action lawsuits alleging fraud from being used to frustrate the objectives of the Reform Act.”).

The FDIC criticizes this discussion as hypothetical. Mem. of P. & A. of FDIC’s Opp. to Defs.’ Motion to Dismiss 21 (“6690 Opp.,”) 12-CV-6690, ECF No. 99. Hypothesizing is unnecessary — the class action complaint in Luther was “precisely [a] type of abusive placeholder lawsuit.” Putnam Bank v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., 860 F.Supp.2d 1062, 1070 (C.D.Cal. 2012). This abusive class action remained in state court for years, whereas the Federal Rules and PSLRA requirements might have led to a swifter resolution, and an end to the tolling period. Cf. Walters, 163 F.3d at 433 (urging “scrupulous adherence to the requirement that the determination whether to certify a suit as a class action be made ‘as soon as practicable after the commencement of the action.’ Fed. R. Civ. P. 23(C)(1).”).

Finally, state court decisions discussing “cross jurisdictional tolling” are instructive about the nature of such tolling. State courts have considered when a class action filed in another jurisdiction extends the state statute of limitations for a subsequent individual claim. In some of the cases rejecting cross jurisdictional tolling, the original class action was based upon the same substantive law as the subsequent individual action. Maestas v. Sofamor Danek Grp., Inc., 33 S.W.3d 805 (Tenn. 2000) (both the class action, which was filed in federal court, and the individual action, filed in state court, were brought for products liability claims). In Maestas, the Tennessee Supreme Court rejected tolling because it believed that cross jurisdictional tolling ran the risk of turning Tennessee state courts into a clearinghouse for filings that should have been brought in another jurisdiction. Id. at 808. Maestas is clear that when interpreting the tolling effect of a foreign class action based on the forum state’s substantive law, forum courts should look to whether the class action was filed in consonance with *1234the forum state’s procedural rules.18 See also Vaccariello v. Smith & Nephew Richards, Inc., 94 Ohio St.3d 380, 763 N.E.2d 160, 162-63 (2002) (accepting cross jurisdictional tolling because of procedural concerns, namely that “the bulk of Ohio’s class action rule ... is identical to the bulk of the federal class action rule. This congruity convinces us that a class action filed in federal court serves the same purpose as a class action filed in Ohio ... it is more important to ensure efficiency and economy of litigation than to rigidly adhere to” a prior decision);19 contra Sawyer, 642 F.3d 560, 562-63 (7th Cir. 2011) (“Federal law determines the tolling effect of a suit governed by a federal statute of limitations. American Pipe establishes that federal rule.”); City Select Auto Sales, Inc. v. David Randall Associates, Inc., No. 11-2658 (JBS/KMW), 2012 WL 426267, at *3 n. 2 (D.N.J. Feb. 7, 2012) (“Defendant does not contend, and it does not appear to the Court that the fact that the prior class action suit was filed in state court is relevant to the application of American Pipe. No rule or policy prohibits cross jurisdictional tolling,” citing Sawyer). In the posture of this case, a federal court must look to its own procedural rules, the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, to determine the scope of tolling. Because the state court action was not filed in conformance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which is the basis for American Pipe tolling, the class action cannot toll the statute of limitations for individual federal actions. Strategic Capital Bank, 2012 WL 5900973, at *13.

This Court’s alternative ruling in Strategic Capital Bank was carefully considered. Federal case law supports the ruling. The rule is particularly resonant with respect to class actions based on the Securities Act. Finally, state court rulings on cross jurisdictional tolling demonstrate that such tolling is based on procedural rules, not the identity of the substantive law between the two actions. In summary, only a class action filed in federal court tolls the federal statute of limitations for later complaints. American Pipe tolling does not save the FDIC’s claims.

IV. The Statute of Limitations in the Nevada Securities Act had not Expired on February 27, 2009

The FDIC brings claims under the Nevada Securities Act, Section 90.570, against Banc of America Securities and Barclays for their roles in selling and underwriting CWALT 2006-29T1 B-l and CWALT 2006-26CB B-2. Those claims must be “brought within the earlier of 2 years after discovery of the violation, 2 years after discovery should have been made by the exercise of 'reasonable care, or 5 years after the act, omission or transaction constituting the violation.” Nevada Revised Statutes § 90.670.

SSB could not have discovered the misstatements before February 27, 2007. “[Reasonable investors cannot, as a matter of law, be held to have discovered *1235misstatements until after August 31, 2007.” Fed. Deposit Ins. Corp. as receiver for United W. Bank v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., 11-CV-10400, 2013 WL 49727, at *1 (C.D.Cal. Jan. 3, 2013) (citing cases from this Court). Even in situations where the filed complaints rely heavily on automated valuation models that certainly could have been used as early as February 2007 to discover the misstatements, the Court cannot hold as a matter of law that a reasonable investor would have realized the need for such analysis, and that the “data would have led a reasonable investor both to recognize the misstatements and to link those to the possibility that the securities purchased by [plaintiff] would suffer losses.” Id.20 SSB also purchased CWALT 2006-29T1 B-l and CWALT 2006-26CB B-2 within five years of February 27, 2009. The statute of repose in the Nevada Securities Act Section 90.670 is extended by Section 1821, see supra. Because the Nevada Securities Act claims based on those securities were five on February 27, 2009, they were timely filed when the FDIC sued Barclays and Banc of America Securities on February 24, 2012.

V. The Nevada Securities Act Claim Against Barclays is Dismissed for Lack of Personal Jurisdiction

Once a federal claim is dismissed, the law “no longer provide[s] a basis for asserting ... personal jurisdiction over [a defendant] for the state law claims.” Malone v. Clark Nuber, P.S., No. C072046RSL, 2008 WL 4279502, at *2 (W.D.Wash. Sept. 12, 2008). The Court dismissed the Securities Act claim against Barclays. Therefore, the Court must consider whether personal jurisdiction is appropriate for the Nevada Securities Act claim against Barclays.

The Court applies the personal jurisdiction law of Nevada “[b]ecause the case was transferred from [that state],” so “the Court may exercise jurisdiction only to the same extent that the [Nevada] district could have done so.” Mass. Mut, 2012 WL 1322884, at *7. Nevada’s long-arm statute “permits personal jurisdiction over a nonresident defendant unless the exercise of jurisdiction would violate due process.” Consipio Holding, BV v. Carlberg, 282 P.3d 751, 754 (Nev. 2012). Barclays is subject to Nevada courts, then, if Nevada *1236has specific jurisdiction, meaning this claim is related to Barclays’ contacts with Nevada, or general jurisdiction, if Barclays has “continuous and systematic general business contacts” with the state. Helicopteros Nacionales de Colombia, S.A. v. Hall, 466 U.S. 408, 414, 416, 104 S.Ct. 1868, 80 L.Ed.2d 404 (1984).

The Ninth Circuit employs a “three-part test to determine if a defendant has sufficient minimum contacts to be subject to specific personal jurisdiction: (1) The non-resident defendant must purposefully direct, his activities or consummate some transaction with the forum or resident thereof; or perform some act by which he purposefully avails himself of the privilege of conducting activities in the forum, thereby invoking the benefits and protections of its laws; (2) the claim must be one which arises out of or relates to the defendant’s forum-related activities; and (3) the exercise of jurisdiction must comport with fair play and substantial justice, i.e. it must be reasonable.” Washington Shoe Co. v. A-Z Sporting Goods Inc., 704 F.3d 668, 672 (9th Cir. 2012). The FDIC “must satisfy the first two prongs. If it does so, then [Barclays] must comé forward with a compelling case that the exer.cise of jurisdiction would not be reasonable.” Id. (citations omitted). The first prong is met if the FDIC shows that Bar-clays purposefully directed its activities to Nevada, under the Ninth Circuit’s “effects” test, or that Barclays purposefully availed itself of the privilege of conducting activities or consummated a transaction in Nevada. Yahoo! Inc. v. La Ligue Contre Le Racisme Et L’Antisemitisme, 433 F.3d 1199, 1206 (9th Cir. 2006).

The only fact the FDIC cites to in support of this prong in its briefing or complaint is that Barclays participated in creating the Offering Documents, including the prospectus supplement at issue,21 with the intention that it be read and relied upon by Nevada investors who would purchase some of the certificates underwritten by Barclays. 6690 Complaint ¶¶ 4, 7, 113, 130. The Complaint specifies that Bar-clays was “an underwriter of the certificate that Banc of America Securities sold to SSB in Securitization 1. The sale of this certificate occurred in Nevada because employees or agents of Banc of America Securities directed communications about the certificates and solicitations to purchase the certificates to SSB there, and because SSB received those communications and solicitations there.” Id. ¶ 113. “Barclays ... offer[ed] or s[old] securities in Nevada by means of written communications that included untrue statements of material facts necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.” Id. ¶ 114.

This fact is insufficient under either the “purposeful ávailment” or “purposeful direction” tests.22 The 6690 Com*1237plaint includes no facts suggesting that Barclays acted in Nevada in creating the prospectus supplement, that Barclays targeted SSB there or that Barclays consummated any contract with SSB in Nevada. Schwarzenegger v. Fred Martin Motor Co., 374 F.3d 797, 802 (9th Cir. 2004) (“A showing that a defendant purposefully availed himself of the privilege of doing business in a forum state typically consists of evidence of the defendant’s actions in the forum, such as executing or performing a contract there.”). When plaintiffs complain of actions of defendants that occurred outside the forum state, but led to injury in the state, the Ninth Circuit looks to the “effects” test, which allows jurisdiction when “the defendant allegedly [has] (1) committed an intentional act, (2) expressly aimed at the forum state, (3) causing harm that the defendant knows is likely .to be suffered in the forum state.” Id. at 803 (citations omitted). The FDIC offers no facts, nor any allegations, to support its proposition that Barclays aimed its activities at Nevada,23 or that Barclays knew the securities would be sold in Nevada. Instead, all the 6690 Complaint alleges is that Barclays underwrote one certificate that Banc of America Securities sold to SSB. This Court has held in a related factual situation that signing a registration statement, by itself, does not constitute purposeful direction, especially because the certificates “were registered with the SEC.and disseminated nationally (and internationally).” W. & S. Life Ins. Co. v. Countrywide Fin. Corp., No. 11-CV-7166, 2012 WL 1097244, at **13-14 (C.D.Cal. Mar. 9, 2012).24 The Complaint fails to allege that Barclays intended its representations to affect parties in Nevada, which means that Nevada does not have specific jurisdiction over this claim.25

The FDIC argues that there is a “sufficiently strong” “possibility” that Barclays may be subject to general personal jurisdiction in Nevada. 6690 Opp. 24. Plaintiff asks for limited jurisdictional discovery on this point. The Court refuses to grant that discovery, because it is based on “little more than a hunch that it might yield jurisdictionally relevant facts.” Boschetto v. Hansing, 539 F.3d 1011, 1020 (9th Cir. 2008); Butcher’s Union Local No. 498 v. SDC Inv., Inc., 788 F.2d 535, 540-41 (9th Cir. 1986) (rejecting jurisdictional discov*1238ery, because plaintiffs “state only that they ‘believe’ that discovery will enable them to demonstrate sufficient” contacts, and “speculation does not satisfy” the required showing).

Therefore, because the 6690 Complaint pleads no facts that Barclays purposefully directed SSB in Nevada, purposefully availed itself of the privilege of conducting activities in Nevada or had continuous and systematic business contacts in the state, the Nevada state law claims against Bar-clays are dismissed for lack of personal jurisdiction.

VI. Conclusion

The federal law claims are all time-barred, except for the Section 11 claim based on CWALT 2006-21CB B-2. No tolling doctrine saves those claims. The FDIC’s Nevada Securities Act claims are timely, and can proceed, but not against Barclays, because Nevada would not have personal jurisdiction over the bank. All dismissals are with prejudice.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
