# GigaValue — 2008Q3 Canonical: https://gigainvestors.com/value?q=2008Q3 Published as of: 2026-10-16T08:06:01.803Z. Quarter end: 2008-09-30. Quality code order: understandable (earnings resilience, evidence only), moat, economics, management, accounting. P = pass; F = fail; C/U = unresolved; N = not applicable. Buy now needs moat, economics, management and accounting passes, a profit record (no recurring losses, positive owner earnings) and a price at or below central value. History covers analysed companies from today’s selected indexes, with coverage varying by quarter. Held companies outside those indexes are not included. Today’s index membership and restated accounts create survivorship and hindsight bias. The fair-price count includes every buy-qualified company in that quarter and market scope. Headline gains are equal-weight average price changes for those picks and for all analysed index companies with available returns, including failed quality tests. Companies without a measured price change are excluded from averages. The headline follows the market switch, not the other list filters. Returns exclude dividends and are not annualised; overlapping cohorts are not an investable portfolio. Market scope: Western-accessible listings. 86 matching companies. | Company | Quality code | Buy qualified | Price per share | Price as of | Expected return per year | Subsequent price change | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | [Abbott Laboratories (ABT.US)](https://gigainvestors.com/s/ABT) | PPPPP | yes | $27.63 | 2008-09-30 | 12.2% | 278.9% to 2026-10-15 | | [Adobe Systems Incorporated (ADBE.US)](https://gigainvestors.com/s/ADBE) | PPPPP | no | $39.47 | 2008-09-30 | 7.1% | 537.6% to 2026-10-15 | | [Analog Devices Inc (ADI.US)](https://gigainvestors.com/s/ADI) | PPPPP | no | $26.35 | 2008-09-30 | 9.4% | 1433.0% to 2026-10-15 | | [Aflac Incorporated (AFL.US)](https://gigainvestors.com/s/AFL) | PPPPP | no | $29.38 | 2008-09-30 | 8.7% | 301.9% to 2026-10-15 | | [The Allstate Corporation (ALL.US)](https://gigainvestors.com/s/ALL) | PPPPP | no | $46.12 | 2008-09-30 | 11.9% | 419.5% to 2026-10-15 | | [Ametek Inc (AME.US)](https://gigainvestors.com/s/AME) | PPPPP | no | $18.12 | 2008-09-30 | 6.4% | 1271.5% to 2026-10-15 | | [Amphenol Corporation (APH.US)](https://gigainvestors.com/s/APH) | PPPPP | no | $2.51 | 2008-09-30 | 8.2% | 3148.2% to 2026-10-15 | | [Arcadis N.V.
