clock, lock, stock, sock...?

Wall Street says, markets are almost at zero,
So my financial expert, is no longer my hero.
Investments seem stalled, in some imaginary lock,
Now I sit forelorned and stare at the clock!
Most have lost money in stock, don't you see.
Thus time steals us blind, while riches do flee.
Guess I'll take a sock, from a bedroom chest,
And hide remaining cash, under an ole mattress!
