What caused yesterday's crazy stock market action?

My question is according to economic principles of supply and demand creating prices is: If the price of silver is lower than I have seen in months/years, why is it so hard to find any? Technically, the market should be awash in silver at this price.

There was a lot of shorting going on and lots of people decided to jump on it while it was low and ride it as it rose.

I love how a fits being thrown about how its "the lowest its been in 2 years" when I remember buying gold for $350 an ounce not 10 years ago when I was learning to blow glass
