Hello Cohen0261,

Thanks for asking this question.

 

As for federal tax, long-term capital gain are taxed at preferred rates, whereas short-term gain are taxed at Ordinary rates.

Long-term capital gains from investments are taxed at 5 percent in Massachusetts, and short-term capital gains are taxed at 12 percent.
