I'm trying to understand what capital gains are. Could you explain what they are and how they work? I'm particularly interested in the context of investments and taxes. What is the capital gains gain?

Short-term capital gains are taxed as ordinary income, meaning they are subject to the same tax rates as your regular income.

Your capital gain or loss is calculated based on the difference between the sale price and the cost basis of your investment.

On the other hand, if the difference is negative, it represents a capital loss.
