Something weird in search. Is it broken?

So, I posted two items this week (not a big-time seller prefer selling fewer higher priced items). In both cases when searching by a critical key word, neither appeared in a sort by newly listed. I often double check once listed just in case there is an error or something and can always find them this way.  I know can be some time lag, although I have never experienced it. Plus, in one of the searches, which I have been doing for over 20 years, it is unusual to have more than 10 new items a day so not like it's a mega category.

And not just me. I had been looking at apiece that was an auction an only been posted for about 10 hours. Forgot to watch it so no problem I'll just go by newly listed.  Didn't appear that way. Was able to eventually find it.

What is going on???

@pjcdn2005   Did the research for you. (Loetz Glass Shade).  Under best match it is #2. Under newly listed it is #1. Will be glad to find more to let you know Ebay hides nothing. Let me know anything else you cannot find.

That may be true on the 31st but prior to that it was not easily found and yes when you add the word shade it was easier, but people don't usually search that specifically for that type of glass. So Loetz was the keyword. I actually believe eBay was doing some kind of maintenance update to search.
