If a headline is phrased as a question, i.e. “Will X takeover the world this month?”, then the answer is always no, because if the answer was yes they would have written “X will takeover the world by the end of the month” which is a much more declarative and attention grabbing headline.
Similarly, if a headline says something “could do X” that means it won’t because if it was going to the reporter would have written that it “will do X”.
