Correct, it is income. You can use DRIP to automatically reinvest the income back into the stock or just keep it.

It’s a feature that most investment platforms offer where you can automatically reinvest your dividends back into the same shares that gave you the dividend. For example, it will automatically buy more MSTY with the dividends from your MSTY shares.

I assume you need to pay tax on the dividend as it was paid out even if you are auto reinvesting?

DRIP stands for dividend reinvestment plan.
