I would invest in some up and coming artists like Paul Gaugain, Vincent Van Goch, Paul Cezanne. Though you will probably have tons of money left over though...
Perhaps you can invest the rest in Rockerfeller's new venture: Standard Oil. You never know what that new fangled energy source may end up.

Well, first off, you'd have to get currency from before 1870. That could be expensive. Then you would have to try to fit in in 1870 when you get there. You would also risk catching diseases that your body has no defense for.
All in all, I'd go back just a few days and bet on some sort of sporting event. Then I would take the winnings, go back again, and bet it on the same event. This solves all the problems mentioned above. Also, if you only go back a day or two, you can't really screw up the timeline. If you go back to 1870 and invest, you could potentially alter the economic past...maybe cause one company to do better and another to fail. Perhaps the company you cause to fail was responsible for developing a certain medicine or something.
If you were to put 10,000 U.S. dollars in a bank at 3% interest compounding once a year over the 136 years since 1870, it would be just over $557,000 now

The Railroad, then I would leverage the profit from that into a booming oil business, then for long term investments, gold.

I'd befriend the artist community, Vincent van Gogh, Monet, Renoir and purchase their paintings, I'd get hold of Charles Dickens manuscripts and start a publishing company, I'd visit the parents of Einstein (cos he's just about to be born) and give them glad tidings of a genius and donate to his education fund... (tell him to look me up before he dies - I'd like a word with him)
I would get to know Brunel, try to save him from injuries when his tunnel collapsed, convince him to give up smoking, give him healing exercise for his kidneys - put my money into his railways and bridges, shipping and look up my ancestor who also was responsible for building railways, oh, yes, I'd buy a house or two, or a palace.
