Stock profit (or loss) is the gain or loss realised from buying and selling shares. It includes capital appreciation (price change), dividends received, and after deducting transaction costs. Total return = (Sale price − Purchase price + Dividends) / Purchase price × 100%.
💡
Tip: Always calculate return on a total cost basis including fees. A 5% gain on a trade with 2% round-trip commission is only 3% net — frequent trading erodes returns rapidly.

Fun Fact
In most countries, short-term capital gains (held under 1 year) are taxed at higher rates than long-term gains. Holding an investment for just over 12 months can significantly reduce your tax bill.
