Profits earned from stocks, known as capital gains, are typically subject to taxation, but the rate can vary based on the holding period. Short-term capital gains (from stocks held for one year or less) are taxed as ordinary income, while long-term capital gains (from stocks held for more than one year) usually have lower tax rates. There are some exceptions, such as tax-advantaged accounts like IRAs or 401(k)s, where taxes on profits may be deferred. However, in general, profits from stock investments are taxed when realized.
