So this is my first time dealing with qualified dividends. I have a ETF that holds preferred stocks, it is 66% qualified dividends.
Does the holding period apply to both the ETF itself and the beneficial holder?
Or does the holder "inherit" the holding period from the fund, like a long term capital gain distribution, where even if it is held for a day, the distribution is still considered a LTCG?
Thanks.
