Frequently Asked Questions
What is ROI on stocks?
ROI = profit ÷ cost basis. $1,500 profit on a $5,000 position is 30%. Compare it against the market's return over the same period to judge performance.
Are stock profits taxable?
Yes — short-term gains (under 1 year) are taxed as ordinary income; long-term gains at 0/15/20%. Use the capital gains calculator for the tax side.
