Share and Stock Dividends
If you own stock, your holding value increases when the stock you own is worth more than you paid for it. But that's not the only way to come out on top in equity ownership. For example, companies pay dividends out of their own profits into the pockets of their shareholders. These recurring payments are not guaranteed but offer great benefits when they become available. Investors can either reinvest the dividends or receive them as income. If you own shares, it's important to understand the difference between capital gains and dividends. A capital gain is a difference between the price at which you bought the stock and the price at which you sold it. Capital gains come in both long and short term, each with its own tax rate.

Dividends are subject to taxation as long-term capital gains when classified as "qualifying dividends". If an individual owns stock, the broker or mutual fund company must provide the individual with its IRS Form 1099-DIV, detailing dividends and capital gains for the tax year.
