I'll buy $100m worth of stocks from all the public companies every month.

For a genie it may sound like gambling.

I'm just not sure if making an ancient wishmaster aware of stock trading is a good idea.

Stocks are liquid enough that the genie may not consider it "spending". You could easily buy it, and then just as easily dump it. The move is also big enough that you'll single handedly move the market in the process.
