Generally, dividends from a stock held long term is going to classify as long-term capital gains, if my understanding is correct. How does that differ with an ETF?
For example, rather than holding 12-18 dividend aristocrat stocks and receiving dividends on a regular basis, what if you put all the funds into something like $NOBL?
Are the dividends issued from $NOBL treated any differently than the ones issued by the companies directly?
Also, would this impact any reinvestment elections you had?
