They could just wish for gold that is still sitting in out in nature somewhere undiscovered. And bringing new gold into the economy doesn't really hurt the gold market unless you bring in a
LOT of it, otherwise finding new goldmines would be utterly pointless.
Actually, even if you wanted cash, that would be doable without hurting anyone else. Something I had idly thought up awhile back would be: "I wish that all of the lost or torn up paper money in the world that still possesses value would be restored to mint quality and appear next to me."
There wouldn't a guarantee of how much you'll end up with(and the wish's wording might need a little tweaking), but it'll probably be a decent amount.
