Domains are really more like land than stock. And while you can do something similar with land - buy undeveloped in places where you expect development in the future, then sell for a lot more - you have to pay property taxes while you hold it.

And you have to pay domain registration fees too, yeah?

Domain renewal fees are a small fixed amount, and not periodically revalued.
