  A global statistical analysis of the pre-SNO solar neutrino data including
the rates and recoil electron spectrum in SuperKamiokande is made assuming the
solar neutrino deficit to be resolved by the interaction of the neutrino
magnetic moment with the solar magnetic field. Given the general
characteristics of the field profiles known to lead to the best event rate
predictions, several specific choices of profiles are assumed and global fits
investigated. Whereas previous studies revealed an excellent quality of the
rate fits within the magnetic moment solution to the solar neutrino problem,
the global fits are found to be only of reasonable quality and comparable to
the global oscillation fits. This is related to the difficulty of any
theoretical model to provide at present an adjustable prediction to the
spectral data.
