FYI: Davis NY Venture recently made one, and Sequoia did, too.
M*'s Christine talking about capital gains distributions, and they're just not for year end. Some funds distribute to shareholders earlier in the year, perhaps to stave off shareholders who might otherwise be inclined to jump ship pre-emptively before a distribution later in the year. Columbia Funds, for example, made a slew of distributions in early June.
