Year end distributions and HSAV or other ETFs?

IFa Fund or ETF pays out a Distribution at year End,,a DEC. purchase triggers taxation on someone else's earnings.

Should one wait until after YEAR END to purchase any ETF such as HSAV due to YEAR END cash distributions and Tax .

HSAV does not pay a distribution. Ultimately deferring a tax triggering event to a different year is a personal decision. Lots of variables that can make it work doing this. Lots of variables could make it worth declaring in the current year as well.
