Amalgamated Spats

Amalgamated Spats was a (presumably defunct) blue-chip company that Charles Montgomery Burns alluded to. It presumably invested in and sold Spat footwear and was composed of multiple companies.
Mr. Burns ordered for investing 50% of his remaining wealth in this company alongside other Blue-chip companies in an attempt at bringing his low wealth back up upon discovering that he may have lost money during the 1929 Stock Market crash. It is heavily implied by Smithers and Burns' accountants' worried expressions upon giving the order after publically agreeing to it out of fear of his wrath that the "blue-chip" companies, including Amalgamated Spats, were no longer in business by this time, which ultimately resulted in Mr. Burns losing all his remaining wealth and going broke.
