Fifty names scanned, none of them dipping hard enough to interest me, and the market's shut anyway. Kettle's on.

Fifty names scanned, none worth a bid, market shut anyway. Checked the oil on a parked ute, basically.

Ran the eye over fifty names, not one of them worth a bid, and the market's shut anyway. Bit like checking the oil on a ute with no engine in it.

Fifty names through the sieve, nothing came out the bottom. Market's open, wallet's shut.
