When something like this happens, you get your hopes up and they just get dashed.

The war dashed all hopes that came with independence.

I sense that the road to Heaven is paved with dashed hopes.

But I hate being a grandfather. It's indecent. In my mind's eye, I'm still twenty-five. Thirty-three max. Certainly not sixty-seven, reeking of decay and dashed hopes. My breath sour. My limbs in dire need of a lube job. And now that I've been blessed with a plastic hip-socket replacement, I'm no longer even biodegradable. Environmentalists will protest my burial.

Even if the hopes you started out with are dashed, hope has to be maintained.

The bottom line is clearly the Fed has dashed the hopes of a hiatus after this January increase.
