No. If they were, a lot more people would be buying and trading them. Trendy assets with no intrinsic value (e.g. trading cards, NFTs) are high-risk. Assets like land and housing have utility. Assets like stock are supposed to have value because you have a share of the profits, although many people still speculate on public markets. Put your money into something you use first, like a home purchase. Even if the price collapses, you may still be saving yourself money every month vs. renting. Then move to something that generates value, like a high-yield index fund.
