I was looking for investments in stocks, ETF, or mutual funds that were not negatively affected by the 2007-2008 financial crisis, if there any. Anyone know where I can find such a list?

Approximate method - hit & miss but useful as a pointer.
Screen for 6Y appreciation >= 10Y. That is roughly the list. WMT e.g.
Usually screeners have 5Y data but no 6Y, still OK. Not a lot of stocks regained 2007 heights in 2010 beginning.
Inverse ETF's would have gone up. Good luck timing the next crash. GLD probably went up.
XLP (the consumer staples index) went down but it held up well.
GLD got hit pretty hard too but not as hard as the stock market.. I got lucky and bought that instead of stocks in 08 and recovered to new highs the next year unlike the S&P500.
If it wasn't affected by the financial crisis, it is a ponzi scheme. Madoff posted positive results during the crisis before he was found out as a schemer.
Everything was affected by the crisis. You just need to look at the charts to see which stocks had came back from the crisis which was most.
