What this means for your returns

Tax applies to your gain, not your whole balance. If you invest and your portfolio grows by $100,000.00, a 27.5% rate leaves you with $72,500.00 of that growth before allowances.

Because the tax is usually triggered when you sell, holding for longer defers it and lets the untaxed amount keep compounding. That deferral is one of the structural advantages of buy-and-hold index investing over frequent trading.
