If you’re looking to add a few dividend shares to your portfolio this week, then I think the ones listed below are worth considering.

Here’s why I think these dividend shares are in the buy zone:

Dicker Data Ltd (ASX: DDR)

The first ASX dividend share to consider investing in is Dicker Data. It is an Australia owned and operated distributor of IT hardware, software, cloud, and Internet of Things solutions. Thanks to a growing number of vendor agreements and strong demand for IT products, Dicker Data has delivered robust earnings and dividend growth over the last few years.

Pleasingly, this trend looks likely to continue in FY 2020. So much so, the company is confident enough to provide dividend guidance of 35.5 cents per share this year. This equates to a 31% increase year on year and represents a fully franked forward 4.6% dividend yield.

Sydney Airport Holdings Pty Ltd (ASX: SYD)

While I wouldn’t be buying Sydney Airport’s shares if you want dividends in 2020, if you can afford to be patient it could be a great option. Australia’s busiest airport isn’t very busy at all right now. The pandemic has led to severe travel restrictions both domestically and internationally. However, the good news is that the domestic market is on the verge of starting its recovery.

Last week Qantas Airways Limited (ASX: QAN) revealed that it is preparing to increase its capacity to upwards of 40% of pre-pandemic levels by the end of July. I expect this to be a big boost to Sydney Airport and could put it in a position to pay a decent dividend in FY 2021. I estimate that it could pay as much as 27 cents per share to shareholders next year, before increasing it to 37 cents per share in FY 2022. This represents a 3.8% yield and a 5.25% yield, respectively.

On Tuesday the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) was on form again and surged higher.

This led to a number of shares jumping higher with the market, with some of them even managing to climb to new highs yesterday.

Here’s why these ASX shares are flying high right now:

Domino’s Pizza Enterprises Ltd (ASX: DMP)

The Domino’s share price touched on a multi-year high of $66.96 on Tuesday. Investors have been buying the pizza chain operator’s shares during the pandemic after the closure of restaurants led to increasing demand for its pizzas. Towards the end of April the company revealed that its Japan and Germany businesses were performing particularly strongly in the second half. Australian same store sales have been positive during the period as well. All in all, it looks well-placed to deliver a solid full year result in August.

Fortescue Metals Group Limited (ASX: FMG)

The Fortescue share price hit a new record high of $15.25 yesterday. Investors were buying the iron ore producer’s shares after the price of the steel-making ingredient jumped higher again. Supply disruption in Brazil and robust demand in China have combined to send the spot iron ore price comfortably over the US$100 a tonne level. In light of this, Fortescue is likely to be generating significant free cash flow at present. Especially given its low cost operations and improving production grades.

MNF Group Ltd (ASX: MNF)

The MNF share price hit a 52-week high of $5.88 on Tuesday. The telecommunications and unified communication technologies provider’s shares have been on fire during the pandemic. This is because the working from home initiative has led to a surge in demand for voice and collaboration technology. At the end of April, the company revealed that it was on track to achieve its operating earnings guidance of $36 million to $39 million in FY 2020. This represents a 32% to 43.4% year on year increase.
