SQL Query Trouble (with constraint)

I have a problem with a query I am running. I want to display the Empcode, Empname and postcode of all employees who satisfy the following: every stock item they sell has a price value above the average of all stock items.

So here is my query:

select distinct SU.empCode, SU.empName, SU.PostCode
from Suppliers SU, Stocks ST
where ST.Price >= (select AVG(Price) from Stocks ST)

I get all the employees back ( 6 in total ) but the correct answer is 2 employees. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

this should work

select empCode, empName, PostCode
  from (select SU.empCode, SU.empName, SU.PostCode, min(st.Price) over (partition by su.empcode) min_price,
               avg(st.price) over () avg_price
          from Suppliers SU, Stocks ST
         where SU.empcode = ST.empcode)
 where min_price > avg_price;
