Dividend Tax Changes Backed by Treasury Analysis
Washington reports the Treasury analyzed Kennedy’s dividend tax cut plan and found it would help or at least not hurt two thirds of dividend earners. The Senate Finance Committee considers repealing the credit for dividends above thresholds, doubling the exclusion. Treasury estimates a single filer with 300 dollars in dividends would fare better or no worse under the new rule, with stock ownership up to about 395 thousand dollars for adverse effects. Secretary Dillon notes spring dollar outflow remained a 90 day record, with about 1.2 billion dollars lost.
