South32 Ltd (ASX: S32)

The first ASX 200 dividend share to look at is South32. It is a diversified miner with operations spanning commodities such as alumina, aluminium, energy coal, metallurgical coal, manganese ore, nickel, silver, lead, and zinc.

The commodity that is expected to be the key driver of its growth in the coming years is aluminium. This is due to expectations for a significant deficit, which Goldman Sachs expects to lead to a strong rise in prices. In fact, the broker believes aluminium is in the early stages of a multi-year bull market.

Goldman is forecasting dividends per share of 6.9 US cents in FY 2021 and then 22.1 US cents in FY 2022. Based on the latest South32 share price of $2.98, this will mean yields of ~3.1% and ~10%, respectively, over the next two years.

The broker has a conviction buy rating and $3.80 price target on its shares.

Telstra Corporation Ltd (ASX: TLS)

Another ASX 200 dividend share to look at is Telstra. While its shares have been on fire in 2021 due to its improving outlook, it may not be too late to invest.

According to a note out of Morgans from last week, its analysts have retained their add rating and lifted their price target on its shares to $4.34. The broker was pleased with Telstra's first "clean" full year result in years and its earnings growth outlook.

Morgans continues to forecast fully franked dividends per share of 16 cents in FY 2022 and FY 2023. Based on the current Telstra share price of $3.96, this will mean yields of 4%.
