 Dear Anonymous:      In order to modify alimony the party seeking to do so must plead and prove that there has been a substantial change in circumstances, not contemplated at the time of the judgment awarding the alimony, that is involuntary and permanent in nature.  Unfortunately, you are not able to monitor what your ex does with the alimony.  If, however, she is able to invest in stocks because she has more income (besides your alimony) than she had at the time of divorce, then that may be partial grounds to modify.  You have to meet all the conditions stated above to prove your case.   Best of luck to you.
